Following the successful momentum of our Preview Release 1 (PR1) earlier this year, the Margo Initiative is moving rapidly from specification to real-world deployment. Today, we are excited to open registration to the broader industrial edge community for the Margo Plugfest, taking place July 7–10, 2026 at the SUSE Offices in Nürnberg, Germany.
Driving Industrial Interoperability
For technology executives and automation engineers alike, vendor lock-in remains a primary operational bottleneck at the industrial edge. Margo’s framework addresses this by delivering a unified standard for edge interoperability.
The upcoming Plugfest provides a collaborative, vendor-neutral engineering environment where participants can test and validate their implementations against peer systems.
Event Essentials
- Collaborative Testing: A structured environment to test application definitions, fleet management strategies and workload hosting device requirements.
- Direct DevRel Engagement: Work face-to-face with Margo Technical Working Group members and ecosystem maintainers.
- Full Hospitality: On-site catering, interactive networking lunches and organized team dinners are fully covered by the project.
Registration closes on July 3, 2026. Because smooth round-robin testing requires precise scheduling, slots are strictly limited.
