More about the Breakathon 👇

1️⃣ - Breakathon: Are you Boss level?

Based on the concept of a traditional hackathon - our 9-hour online marathon will bring together hundreds of participants in teams of five to work on technological challenges. Join us for this unprecedented opportunity to test the limits of our Kubernetes Kapsule solution in the most creative way possible.

"Are you boss level?" put your skills to the test whether you are a developer, user or partner, our whole international community is invited. The event will be based around 4 major themes to put hyper scalability, optimized response times and high availability to the test:

🧠 Artificial Intelligence

📲 Software as a Service

🗝 Security and Architecture

🕹 Fun and Games

⭐️ Get Creative - Open Category

2️⃣ - How to win?

The main goal will be to create Kubernetes Kapsule Clusters, and to generate a maximum of activity on them. The total of the number of objects and activity generated on the cluster will be converted into points.

A list of challenge categories will be defined, according to specific themes, and each category will contain between 2 and 3 challenges.

Each time your team successfully completes a challenge you will earn points.

Additional points will be awarded according to the activity recorded on the clusters (read/write).

Participants will be ranked by overall points, and the top 20 teams will be assessed and rated by the jury.
