Welcome to Adoption First – Microsoft User Group.

This is a global community for everyone who has seen tools being rolled out… and then quietly ignored. For everyone who has sat in meetings where “successful implementation” didn’t translate into real impact. For everyone who knows that features alone don’t change anything.

Because the truth is simple:

If people don’t use it, it doesn’t exist.

At Adoption First, we focus on what really matters. Not the next shiny feature. Not the roadmap slide. But the human side of technology — behavior, habits, and what actually drives people to adopt tools in their daily work.

We talk about why Copilot adoption often drops after a few weeks. We explore what really creates behavior change inside organizations. And we share real-world experiences on how Microsoft 365, Power Platform, Azure & beyond can move from “available” to “actually used”.

This is not a place for theory or perfect-case scenarios.

It’s a space for honest conversations.

You can expect real stories from the field — including what didn’t work. You’ll get practical insights you can apply immediately, not abstract frameworks. And you’ll meet people who care about impact, not just implementation.

What you won’t find here?

No sales pitches. No buzzword bingo. No polished slides pretending everything always works.

Adoption First is for IT professionals, admins, adoption and change managers, consultants, business users, and leaders — anyone who is serious about making technology stick.

Because this is not just another user group.

This is where technology meets reality.

👉 Join us.

👉 Share your story.

👉 Let’s turn tools into impact.

Kubernetes Austin is the official CNCF chapter serving the Central Texas technology corridor. We are a community of practitioners, ranging from Individual Contributors and Engineers to Architects and CTOs at the region’s largest engineering hubs - focused on advancing Cloud Native technologies.

Whether you are navigating complex, multi-cluster architectures at an enterprise scale, or you are an engineer looking to deepen your foundational cloud-native expertise, this is your community. We are here to trade architectural insights and solve hard production problems. Our goal is to grow together in a friendly, inclusive environment where you can ask tough questions or share exactly what you are building with peers.

Our mission is to elevate the local ecosystem by hosting production-grade technical talks. We welcome speakers from all backgrounds, provided they bring engineering depth rather than sales pitches. Whether you are a CNCF Maintainer or a local engineer with a war story to share, our platform is designed to share actionable knowledge.

Our Core Values & Operating Principles

🛡️ Vendor Neutral Excellence

Technical integrity is our priority. To protect our members' time, we prioritize demo-focused, architectural deep-dives over product pitches. Our Program Committee vets every session against our technical standards to ensure it provides high-value, transferable knowledge.

🔓 Open Access, High Standards

We are committed to keeping our meetups FREE and open to all. Top tier content should be accessible to everyone, regardless of budget.

🌱 Community Mentorship

We focus on the democratized growth of speakers. We don't just accept expert speakers, we build them. Our content review process is designed to help local engineers refine their proposals into world-class presentations through constructive feedback.

🤝 Transparent & Accessible Sponsorship

We foster an open ecosystem where startups and tech giants alike can support the community. To ensure we do not price out smaller innovators or open-source vendors, financial sponsorships in support of Kubernetes Austin are strictly at-cost to cover venue and food. Furthermore, any organization that donates venue space or provides high-quality speakers is automatically recognized as an official sponsor.

🏛️ Democratized Operations, Governed Content

Kubernetes meetups should be rooted in the spirit of open source. While our Program Committee strictly governs session selection to ensure the highest quality of accepted talks, our broader organizational operations are fully democratized. Anyone in the Cloud Native community who wants to assist with event operations or source sponsors is welcome to join.

📜 Code of Conduct

Kubernetes Austin is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. As an official chapter, we strictly adhere to the CNCF Code of Conduct. We expect all organizers, speakers, sponsors, and attendees to help us create a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all skill levels.

We welcome submissions for all skill levels, from introductory concepts to deep technical dives. If you have something to share, we’d love to hear it. Of note, all sessions are presented in person.

Haremos eventos online, mezclados con presencia física, hablando siempre de tecnologías de la Microsoft Intelligente Data Platform!!

This group meets in person only and does not have a digital footprint and no capability for remote presentations.

Cloud computing is already a multi-billion dollar business for Microsoft, and yet Azure is just now hitting its stride. Perhaps you're a long-time MS stack developer wondering "where do I go from here?" Maybe you're a seasoned dev manager or director curious how cloud in general and Azure in particular might fit into your next project. If you're looking for the future of Microsoft on the server and in the enterprise... you've found it! This group caters to all things Microsoft Azure and cloud computing. We'll explore a range of topics in three key areas (in likely order of decreasing frequency):

1. Nuts-and-bolts Azure dev tools, APIs, features, etc... "how to accomplish in Azure"

2. Higher-level topics on cloud computing patterns, architectural best practices, data access strategies, etc. with a focus on applying these in the Microsoft Azure environment

3. Business-oriented topics like cloud economic and pricing models, cloud migration strategies, legal and compliance implications of the cloud, etc.

Ultimately our topic list is determined by the interests of the group members. We meet monthly and vary meeting formats as needed; mostly a 30 minute meet-and-greet followed by a 60-90 minute presentation, but some months we'll do two smaller presentations, we'll even try multiple 15 minute lightning talks if we have sufficient interest. We'll keep things relatively informal... as long as the sessions are relevant and engaging for the audience, that's what matters most. Hope you'll come out and join us!

יום טוב,

לפני שתתחיל למלא את הטופס, ברצוננו להודות לך בשם הקהילה על נכונותך לתרום מזמנך ולחלוק את הידע שלך עם הקהילה. זה לא טריוויאלי ואנו מעריכים מאוד כל מתנדב. תודה!

בכל שאלה שעולה אתה יכול לפנות אל רונן אריאלי דרך פייסבוק או לינקדאין.

כיצד למלא את הטופס?

שפה: הקבוצה היא בעברית וכל ההרצאות תמיד בשפה העברית. עם זה, את הפרטים של המפגש והמרצה אנחנו צריכים גם בעברית וגם באנגלית. הסיבה היא שחלק מהמערכות איתן אנחנו משתמשים לא תומכות בעברית ולכן אנחנו נאלצים לרשום את המפגשים במערכות אלו בשפה האנגלית.

תאריכים: כל המפגשים הם וירטואליים (בלי קשר לקורנה הקבוצה היא קבוצה וירטואלית בהגדרה כבר מעל יותר מ 10 שנים). לכן אנחנו גמישים מבחינת הזמנים והתאיריכם של המפגשים. אלא התעלם מהתאריכים המופיעים בטופס, ותבחר את התאריכים אשר מתאימים לך למפגש.

אנא השלם כמה שיותר תאריכים על מנת לאפשר גמישות. אתה יכול גם לתאר במילים זמנים ותאריכים אשר עדיפים מבחינתך במקום לרשום תאריכים מסוימים. בכל מקרה בו ההרצאה תיבחר, אנחנו ניצור עמך קשר לקביעת הזמן הסופי של המפגש.

* שעות תחילת מפגש מומלץ בין 15:00 לבין 19:00

* מומלץ לוודא שאין אירוע או חד באותו תאריך.

דרכי יצירת קשר

חשוב ביותר! פרטי יצירת הקשר נשמרים רק לשימוש פנימי לצורך תיאום עם הדוברים. אנא השלם כמה שיותר ערוצי תקשורת על מנת לוודא שנוכל להגיע אלייך במידת הצורך.

יש להשלים לפחות אחד מהערוצי התקשורת הבאים ובנוסף אתה יכול לצרף כל ערוץ תקשורת בו אפשר ליצור איתך קשר: (1) מספר טלפון, (2) קישור לפרופיל בפייסבוק ו(3) קישור לפרופיל ב LinkedIn.

* במקרה שיש בעיה בזמן ההרצאה כמו ניתוק האינטרנט, טלפון יכול מאוד לעזור למנוע מהמרצה להמשיך לדבר בלי ששומעים אותו. לא חובה אבל מומלץ מאוד לצרף גם מספר טלפון.

בכל שאלה אתה יכול לפנות אל רונן אריאלי בפייסבוק או בלינקדאין:
