Cloud Foundry Summit Silicon Valley will take place June 13-15 in Santa Clara, California and is the premier event for enterprise application developers.

This year, more than 3,000 attendees are expected to attend. Last year's event showcased information from innovators and technical leaders at companies including Allstate, Comcast, Volkswagen and others. The Summit will host several breakout sessions including those that focus on Cloud Foundry core updates from project leads, Cloud Foundry experiments, and developer community tracks which will be named in the coming weeks.

"With a strong emphasis on languages and agile development best practices for the cloud, Summit Silicon Valley is the premier event for developers," said Abby Kearns, Executive Director, Cloud Foundry Foundation. "Business innovation with in-memory technology is a track that should not be missed."
