Hackathon Theme

The theme of this event will be “InfraHack: AI for Cloud Infrastructure”.

InfraHack explores how AI can be used to make cloud infrastructure smarter, safer, more efficient and more independent, with a focus on cloud operations, security, data protection, and migration.

AI for cloud infrastructure is the focus, and we want participants to demonstrate a creative mindset and ability to problem-solve in a collaborative environment.

We want to see a showcase of knowledge and understanding, with considerations including factors such as data protection, cloud security, and sovereign cloud.

Do you have an idea for hyperscaler alternatives, infrastructure automation, or more secure cloud operations? Show us what you’ve got!
