KubeCon + CloudNativeCon India is back—and for the first time, Portworx by Everpure will have a dedicated presence on the ground.
From June 18–19, our team will be at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai, connecting with customers, partners, and the cloud-native community across India. Coming off a year of strong momentum at KubeCon North America in Atlanta, KubeCon Europe in Amsterdam, and Red Hat Summit in Atlanta, we’re excited to bring that same energy to Mumbai.
This year, we’re focused on three areas that keep coming up in every customer conversation: rethinking virtualization, modernizing applications, and building platforms ready for AI workloads.
Here’s what we have planned.
A Platform for VMs, Containers, and AI
Enterprise IT isn’t moving in one direction—it’s moving in several at once. Most organizations we talk to are navigating a mix of:
- Traditional virtual machines they can’t simply turn off
- Containerized applications they’re scaling fast
- AI workloads that demand high-performance, scalable infrastructure
The challenge isn’t choosing one—it’s making them all work together on a single platform without adding complexity.
That’s where Portworx comes in. We’re helping enterprises run VMs and containers side by side on Kubernetes—with shared data services, consistent operations, and the resilience that mission-critical workloads demand. And as AI workloads scale, Portworx provides the high-performance storage layer that keeps pipelines moving.
With Portworx, organizations can:
- Run VMs and containers side-by-side with unified data management
- Protect mission-critical workloads with application-aware backup and zero-RPO disaster recovery
- Support AI workloads with scalable, high-performance storage
- Operate consistently across hybrid and multi-cloud environments
- Simplify Day 2 operations—so platform teams can focus on building, not firefighting
We’re already enabling over 40 enterprises worldwide—across healthcare, manufacturing, government, and banking—to do exactly this. We’re excited to bring those conversations to India.
VM on Kubernetes Day — India
Before the main conference kicks off, we’re hosting the first-ever VM on Kubernetes Day in India—a Day 0 event that’s quickly become one of the most anticipated community experiences in the KubeCon ecosystem.
After sold-out sessions in Atlanta and Amsterdam, we’re bringing it to Mumbai.
VM on Kubernetes Day
- Date: Tuesday, June 17
- Time: 4:30 – 7:00 PM IST (networking until 8:30 PM)
- Location: Sofitel Mumbai BKC — Salon Pompadour
Here’s what to expect:
- Kickoff Keynote — Industry analyst Janakiram MSV sets the stage with a look at where Kubernetes-native virtualization is headed
- Customer Journey: VMware to Kubernetes — A real-world look at how enterprises are consolidating VMs and containers on a single platform, eliminating silos, and accelerating developer velocity
- Platform and Partner Sessions — Strategies for modernizing virtualized workloads from Red Hat and ecosystem partners
- Modern Virtualization Technology Panel — Where KubeVirt makes sense today, adoption blockers, and the role of AI in the transition
- Hands-On Lab — A guided walkthrough of deploying and managing VMs on Kubernetes
- Dinner and Networking — Connect with peers and Portworx experts over dinner and drinks
Whether you’re evaluating KubeVirt, planning a VMware migration, or looking to unify VMs and containers on a single Kubernetes control plane—this event is designed to give you practical, real-world insights you can take back to your team.

Visit the Portworx Booth
During the main conference on June 18–19, stop by the Portworx booth on the Solutions Showcase floor. Our team will be on hand with:
- Live demos of Portworx Enterprise and Portworx Backup
- Technical deep dives and whiteboard sessions with our engineers
- 1:1 conversations with Portworx leaders around virtualization transformation, application modernization, and AI infrastructure
If you’re planning your next phase of modernization, this is a great opportunity to dive in.
Why KubeCon India?
India’s cloud-native ecosystem is one of the fastest growing in the world. Enterprises across financial services, technology, and manufacturing are accelerating their Kubernetes strategies—and many are facing the same questions we’ve been helping organizations answer globally:
- How do I run VMs and containers together without platform sprawl?
- How do I modernize legacy apps without rewriting them?
- How do I build a platform that’s ready for AI workloads today—and whatever comes next?
These aren’t theoretical problems. They’re the conversations happening right now across India’s largest enterprises. And Portworx is built to help solve them.
See You in Mumbai
KubeCon India is where ideas meet execution—and we’re excited to be part of it for the first time.
Join us at VM on Kubernetes Day, visit the Portworx booth, or connect with our team to talk through your plans.
We’d love to hear what you’re working on.
