wasmCloud v2.0.1 Released, KubeCon EU & Wasmcon Recap

Watch on YouTube ↗

A short March 25, 2026 wasmCloud Wednesday hosted by Jeremy Fleitz from KubeCon EU in Amsterdam. The main news: wasmCloud v2.0.1 is out (a quick follow-up to v2.0 to move wash into the wasmCloud monorepo and clean up the release build), the docs site is updated to match the v2 release, and WebAssembly is getting markedly more attention at the conferences this year — at both the Cosmonic booth and the CNCF wasmCloud Project Pavilion booth.

Key Takeaways

  • wasmCloud v2.0.1 released — a quick patch over the v2.0 cut that moves wash into the wasmCloud GitHub monorepo and fixes the release build/tagging
  • Documentation site updated — the wasmCloud docs page now matches the v2 release and is the current canonical version
  • CNCF Wasmcon recap — last Monday's Wasmcon (Amsterdam) was a big success, with speaker videos publishing shortly
  • KubeCon EU underway — WebAssembly is getting more spotlight than at any prior KubeCon, with strong walk-up traffic at the wasmCloud Project Pavilion booth

Meeting Notes

wasmCloud v2.0.1 Release

Jeremy Fleitz announced the wasmCloud v2.0.1 release. The patch was cut quickly after v2.0 to move the wash CLI into the main wasmCloud GitHub monorepo and to fix some build and tagging issues that surfaced immediately after the v2.0 cut. Thanks to everyone who helped get the release out the door. The wasmCloud documentation site has been updated to match — v2 docs are now the current, most up-to-date documentation.

Wasmcon and KubeCon EU

Last Monday's CNCF Wasmcon in Amsterdam was a strong show. Videos from all of the speakers will be posted shortly; the team will share the link in the wasmCloud community channels once they're up. KubeCon EU is happening in Amsterdam this week (March 24-26), and WebAssembly is visibly getting more attention than in prior years — at the Cosmonic booth and at the CNCF wasmCloud Project Pavilion. People are walking up and asking informed questions about wasmCloud, not "what's Wasm?" — that shift, observed throughout the team this conference, is exactly what the v2 launch was timed for.

WebAssembly News and Updates

This short call sits in the middle of a busy two-week run for the WebAssembly community: Wasm I/O in Barcelona (March 19-20), CNCF Wasmcon in Amsterdam (March 23), and KubeCon EU (March 24-26). The wasmCloud v2 launch was deliberately scheduled to coincide with this run so the broader CNCF cloud-native community could see the new Kubernetes-native architecture in person. The WebAssembly component model is meaningfully more present in cloud-native conversations than it was even six months ago.

What is wasmCloud?

wasmCloud is a CNCF project for building and running WebAssembly components across cloud, edge, and Kubernetes. The v2 release referenced in this call is the major Kubernetes-native architecture that schedules wasmCloud hosts as standard pods, with workload deploys managed by the runtime operator, and inbound traffic reverse-proxied directly to host pods via the runtime gateway. Components are isolated through the component model, distributed as OCI artifacts with built-in cosign / SIG store attestation, and observed via OpenTelemetry.

Up Next

Next week's wasmCloud Wednesday will be hosted from Amsterdam, with much more to discuss once the conferences wrap up and the team gets some sleep. Speaker videos from Wasmcon will be linked in the wasmCloud community channels as soon as they're posted.
