KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2025

KubeVirt continues to grow at a considerable pace, and combined with our focus on Graduation, KubeVirt has had to evolve our processes and community structure to scale with the project size and community needs.
How we can test VMs at scale is part of this: minimising infrastructure requirements while maximising the limits that we can test and measure. After all, with great growth comes greater infrastructure responsibility.

In this talk we will follow up on the vision we shared in 2022, and how we have now enhanced our CI testing with Kwok, which allows us to create cluster simulations of 1000 nodes in seconds, without adding to our infra cost.
You can expect a comparison of our current approach of testing scalability with Kwok, challenges we had to overcome, and the advantages gained.

But life isn’t just testing and benchmarks. We will also cover our recent community structure changes, recent achievements, features, and engagements in the wider ecosystem.
