Heroku at KubeCon North America 2026
Heading to KubeCon in Salt Lake City this November 9-12? Heroku will be there! Come find us at booth #166 to check out what we’ve been building, catch our sessions below, or join us for a casual meetup with the Heroku team to talk shop, ask questions, and learn more about our roadmap.
💻 Giving Claude a Cloud: App Previews with Heroku
Visit the Heroku booth during KubeCrawl for a hands-on demo of Preview Apps. If you are building or vibe coding an application with an LLM, you can easily spin up a live preview directly on Heroku through this integration. Every preview is shareable, isolated, and secure by default.
Take Preview Apps for a test drive at the booth to spin up an app, generate a live preview, and share the URL right from the expo floor.
💬 Git, APIs, and Kubernetes: Where Should Platform Configuration Live
- Karunasri (Karuna) Garigipati, Software Engineering LMTS, Heroku
- Rishabh Wason, Software Engineering LMTS, Heroku
- Joe Kutner, Software Engineering Principal Architect, Salesforce
- Jesper Joergensen, Chief Product Officer, ConfigHub
Git is rarely the only system touching a Kubernetes platform once developer portals, CLIs, CI pipelines, operators, and AI agents get involved. Join platform practitioners from Salesforce, Heroku, and ConfigHub for a discussion on where authoritative configuration belongs across API-driven models, GitOps, and Kubernetes-native control planes. Bring your architecture, lessons, and strong opinions.

💬 Salesforce Runs on Heroku: How We Empower Every Builder at Cloud Native Scale
