Save the Date! NGINX Conf 2018 in Atlanta, October 8-11 - NGINX

Original: https://www.nginx.com/blog/save-the-date-nginx-conf-2018/

We at NGINX request the pleasure of your company at NGINX Conf 2018, the fourth annual NGINX conference. The dates are Monday, October 8 through Thursday, October 11, all in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

Why Atlanta, and why October?

ATL adds direct flights to Wakanda

In previous years, we called this event nginx.conf – a direct reference to the configuration files that make your NGINX instances hum – and held it the same week as Labor Day. You can see many of the sessions from previous years on the NGINX YouTube channel.

This year, we moved the date back a month, and changed the name a bit. Why the name change? Well, NGINX – the company – now offers much more than the open source NGINX software and NGINX Plus, our commercial web and reverse proxy server.

At NGINX Conf 2018, you’ll get to see our expanded lineup of products, as well as new and upcoming features across our major software offerings:

You can also expect updates on, and demos of, the NGINX WAF Module, the NGINX Kubernetes Ingress Controller, the NGINX Istio Service Mesh, the NGINX JavaScript Module, NGINX Amplify – and the NGINX Application Platform, which ties them all together.

At NGINX Conference, you get so many things you can’t get by staying home:

And, as a crucial benefit, everyone who comes – NGINX leadership and employees, partners, exhibitors, presenters, and conference and training attendees – gets to network with each other. Some of the best things that happen every year at our conference, and after, are the result of these informal meetings.

So, please save the dates: Monday, October 8 through Thursday, October 11 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Keep checking the conference home page for details. And sign up here for updates through the NGINX Newsletter.
