Event will examine how to simplify the creation of digital experiences utilizing the latest
advances in AI, platformless, and other technologies for app development, integration, API
management and IAM, and announce winners of the WSO2 Code Challenge
Dubai, UAE, February 2024 – WSO2 today announced the return of WSO2Con, its global
user conference. WSO2Con 2024 will bring together three days of keynotes, guest
presentations, technical sessions, and tutorials aimed at helping enterprise software
development teams to simplify their creation of digital experiences. WSO2 will also reveal
the winners of the WSO2 Code Challenge, including the grand prize recipient of a Tesla
Cybertruck. WSO2Con 2024 will run May 7-9, 2024 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL.
WSO2Con 2024: Accelerating the Innovation of Digital Experiences
Thousands of organizations, including hundreds of the world’s largest corporations, top
universities, and governments, rely on WSO2’s cloud native software as a service (SaaS)
offerings and open-source software to drive their digital transformation—executing 60
trillion transactions and managing over 1 billion identities each year.
Sessions at WSO2Con 2024 will help WSO2 users to accelerate their delivery of secure and
innovative digital services by capitalizing on artificial intelligence (AI), Kubernetes, internal
developer platform (IDP) technology, and other key advances in application development,
API management, integration, and identity and access management (IAM). Additionally, Dr.
Sanjiva Weerawarana, WSO2 founder and CEO; Asanka Abeysinghe, WSO2 CTO; and other
technical experts will introduce the concept of “platformless” and discuss associated best
practices. Providing an alternative to traditional IDPs, platformless deployments hide the
complexity of platforms. So, developers can focus on coding, building, and deploying digital
services and applications, speeding up time to market.
Registration for WSO2Con 2024 is now open, and attendees who sign up by April 5, 2024
can take advantage of early bird pricing.
WSO2 Code Challenge: Use IDP SaaS to Deliver Production-Ready App
The WSO2 Code Challenge is now open. To participate, developers need to submit a
production-ready application that has been built in any language and deployed on Choreo,
WSO2’s IDP software as a service (SaaS). Every eligible app wins an entry in the draw for
prizes, which include a Tesla Cybertruck or $100,000 for the grand prize and 10 MacBook
Pro computers. Participants can get more entries by adding more features, such as
databases, manual or scheduled jobs, internal and external APIs, multiple projects, customer IAM (CIAM) using Asgardeo, or backend logic or APIs implemented using the
Ballerina language.
WSO2 Code Challenge submissions open on February 21, 2024 and close on April 30, 2024.
Winners will be announced on May 9, 2024 at WSO2Con 2024.
