Engineering company Aruba Networks said it will not host its upcoming Atmosphere conference this month citing the spread of coronavirus.

The decision was made “out of an abundance of caution,” the post reads, as the company continues to monitor the potential impacts of the COVID-19 coronavirus.

This come on the heels of software company Adobe announcing similar plans, and the total cancellation of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations planned summit.

Many other upcoming conferences in Las Vegas still are scheduled as planned.
