CloudFest USA 2025 is a major conference that the hosting and cloud community will definitely be talking about for a long time. The event, which is coming to Miami on November 5 and 6, will be a great opportunity to meet face to face with more than 2,000 industry professionals over two days of collaboration, learning, and networking.
By adding six new technical sessions, the organizers have broadened the agenda to cover content that is highly relevant to developers, DevOps engineers, and IT leaders. These new topics intend to delve deeper into the issues that are causing the development of cloud and hosting infrastructure. Sessions will explore topics such as open-source security, AI integration, and the future of edge computing—issues that now define the daily work of many in the industry.
According to Program Manager Sam Schwarz, the event’s technical program reflects feedback from past attendees. “Developers and technical workers often stay behind the scenes, yet they’re the ones who keep everything running,” Schwarz said. “This year’s sessions give them a dedicated space to exchange knowledge and explore what’s next.”
The new schedule includes “Securing Tomorrow: The Future of Open Source Security Stacks,” “AI Meets Open Source,” and “Edge Hosting and the Infrastructure Challenges of Tomorrow.” Each one focuses on practical strategies and real-world examples rather than high-level theory. In addition, a DevOps masterclass will offer a hands-on look at tools and patterns that shape modern infrastructure management.
Beyond the conference halls, CloudFest USA keeps its reputation as a social and energetic event. Attendees can expect activities like a Hackathon, a pickleball tournament, and a closing party at Miami’s famous Wynwood Walls. These informal gatherings continue to be a highlight for many who attend year after year.
Speakers include many familiar names in the hosting and cloud scene, such as Bluehost CEO Sachin Puri, Rocket.net’s Jessica Frick, and Vultr CMO Kevin Cochrane. With more than 75 speakers and over 50 sponsors already confirmed, this year’s conference continues to reflect the industry’s momentum toward collaboration and innovation.
