CloudFest 2025 has concluded, and WP Engine is thrilled to have sponsored the world’s largest cloud computing and internet infrastructure event!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a leader in managed cloud-based hosting, our team was excited to connect with technology innovators, developers, and business leaders and showcase how WP Engine helps businesses build high-performing, secure, and scalable digital experiences on WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both for longtime WordPress users and those exploring cloud-based solutions more generally, CloudFest was the perfect opportunity to see the future of web technology in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hello from your sponsors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a sponsor of CloudFest 2025, WP Engine had a few of our team members in attendance at this year\u2019s conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At booth Z25 (in the WP Zone!<\/a>), we handed out exclusive swag and the chance to win some amazing prizes, raffling off a PlayStation 5 as well as a few other premium giveaways during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also spent some time in one-on-one consultations with attendees to discuss how our managed cloud hosting can supercharge your WordPress sites with better speed, security, and scalability!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schedule of events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CloudFest took place March 17\u201320 in Rust, Germany, about 35 miles south of Strasbourg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With back-to-back sessions, panels, and networking time with some of the top builders and innovators in the WordPress ecosystem, attendees found their days jam-packed with informative, insightful sessions on a variety of topics relevant to technology infrastructure professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference also featured a dedicated WP Zone<\/a> which served as a centralized area for WordPress community members to find one another and discuss topics specific to WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our own Svilena Peneva from the Nitropack team even held a short presentation at The Ring Stage<\/a> titled Speed, Security & Scalability: The Pillars of an Independent Digital Strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, Cloudfest\u2019s after-hours events were legendary, and our team members in attendance were overjoyed to spend their downtime among like-minded community members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is CloudFest?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CloudFest is the premier global event for cloud computing, web hosting, and internet infrastructure, bringing together thousands of industry leaders at Europa-Park<\/a> in Germany\u2019s Black Forest. WHD Event GmbH<\/a>, the company behind CloudFest, has built a fun, engaging event focused on technological innovation and community collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring more than 200 exhibitors from around 70 different countries, this year\u2019s conference is set to welcome more than 9,000 attendees from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
