From Europe to the World, with Love
The world’s largest internet infrastructure event came to Austin, Texas for CloudFest USA 2023! A large audience of hosting and cloud service providers are based in North America: while many are familiar with CloudFest, not everyone has been able to make the trip to Germany… so we’re brought CloudFest to you. Because CloudFest gathers the best and brightest minds in technology, it only makes sense to run CloudFest USA in Austin, Texas—America’s hotbed of innovation. But there’s another reason we’ve picked Austin…
CloudFest USA x NamesCon Global
The WHD Event team also runs NamesCon Global, the world’s largest domain name industry event, and this year we’re building a bridge between two worlds that share a lot of common ground: the world of internet infrastructure and cloud service providers, and the world of registrars, registries, brokers, and domain name investors that make up the domaining community.
CloudFest USA pass-holders had access to the full NamesCon Global program. Once the workday ends, things got really interesting: during CloudFest’s legendary social events, they connected with up to 1000 domain name industry professionals—from registries and registrars to brokers, entrepreneurs, and startups who gather each year for NamesCon. Good thing nobody used paper Rolodexes anymore, because they would fill up in just a few days!

Taking WordPress to Scale
WordPress has established internet dominance, powering 43% of all websites—and 63% of CMS-based sites. In a sense, WordPress is already at scale, but its true growth potential lies in how you use it to augment your hosting and managed services initiatives.
CloudFest USA will examine how to approach your WordPress strategy to make the most of Edge computing, security, and even sustainability.

CloudFest USA ❤️ NamesCon Global
Bringing the CloudFest and NamesCon communities together makes perfect sense—we’re only wondering why we didn’t think of it sooner! Here’s what you stand to gain by connecting with the leaders of the domain name industry:
Hosters already own millions of domain names, which the NamesCon community of brokers and expert investors can help you turn into a profit center
Learn how domain traffic, parking, and sales work in the real world, straight from the people who created those business models
Partner with platforms that work with premium domains that are seemingly off the market—offering seemingly-impossible extra value to your customers and winning enhanced loyalty
During CloudFest’s legendary social events, you’ll also connect with up to 1,000 domain name industry professionals—from registries and registrars to brokers, entrepreneurs, and startups: bring more business cards than you think you’ll need
Omni Hotel / Austin Texas, USA
CloudFest USA will take place in the heart of Austin, Texas, a global hotbed of innovation and imagination. This is the perfect city in which to bring the cloud computing world together with domain name and decentralized internet technologies, forming a profitable relationship they all will enjoy.
All of our programming and social events will happen at the Omni Austin Hotel Downtown or very closely nearby. You’ll find yourself within a stone’s throw of fantastic food and nightlife to take your networking to the next level.
