Fedora CoreOS has consistently grown over the past five years, eventually becoming a top level edition and now competing with the Server and Cloud editions for most active node count on any given week. This, however, is just the beginning. Operating system and container technology continue to evolve at a breakneck pace and Fedora CoreOS sits nicely at the intersection of this evolution; providing a nice stable ride along the way.
In this session we'll discuss what is next for Fedora CoreOS; our goals for the project and the community, and how we can achieve those goals through coordinated technical and non-technical efforts. Topics will include fedora-bootc, configuration management, systemd sysexts, Kubernetes, and RISC-V.
