This year’s spring edition of the CSEUG will be taking place in The Hague, Netherlands on May 21st and will be hosted by CBS (Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek). As always ShapeBlue will be supporting the CloudStack Community at the event.
CSEUG is one of the most valuable CloudStack events in the year because it keeps the focus on real world implementation, open discussion, and community driven progress. It’s a place where CloudStack users can share experiences, new adopters can learn quickly, and contributors can shape what comes next.
That’s why we’re proud to sponsor the CloudStack European User Group 2026 and support the community as it continues to grow!
Who Should Attend or Support the User Group?
The CloudStack community welcomes anyone with an interest in open-source cloud technology, no matter your level of experience. That said, most attendees are typically active Apache CloudStack users, developers, and operators.
As an event rooted in open-source values, CSEUG is made possible through the support of the CloudStack community. If your organisation is interested in sponsoring the User Group, please contact the CloudStack marketing mailing list at marketing@cloudstack.apache.org
