Talks

This talk is about the ways to assure the quality of Ansible scripts codebase with AnsibleLint, Molecule and other tools, and making it all friends with CI.

Immutable infrastructure is a way to success, but what about the lifecycle of individual resources? This talk is about the evolution of resources, code structure, Terraform coding tricks, composition, and refactoring.

We will describe what a service mesh is, what problems it tries to solve and what new problems it may create. We will then discuss the benefits of Istio's implementation. And then we will demonstrate a few of the smart deployment techniques Istio makes possible.

We want to share what we've learned from the developer perspective while building Rancher — an open source Kubernetes clusters management platform, as well as explain the benefits of having multiple Kubernetes clusters in the organization.

It's great that you've moved to microservices, but how are you distributing secrets? This talk offers an overview of Vault's unique approach to secret management by providing secrets as a service for services (and humans), that is highly scalable and easily customizable to fit any environment.

Paul will cover the basics of Chaos Engineer, give some case studies of companies that currently do this in production and give an introduction to some of the open source tooling that currently exists.

We'll look at how security principles can be applied to container-based deployments at every stage of the CI/CD pipeline, and show an example of a practical security-related action that you can take at each stage.

We are going to discuss which roles are there in DevOps and how they can interact, which skills and practices the engineers have to learn for the DevOps process to work, and what could happen when they don't.

We'll tell how we are building "database as a service" infrastructure and how developers use it in their services.

There are a lot of topics about advantages of using automation and modern technologies. However, do they have any disadvantages or limitations? We will talk about this using our own experience.

Viktor will address frequently asked questions and deliver critical information to help you decide if running Apache Kafka and other components of a streaming platform such as Kafka Connect, Schema Registry as well as stream processing apps on Kubernetes is the right approach for your organization.

In this talk, we'll talk about data-driven DevOps and how the cross-cutting metrics from dev, QA, and ops can be integrated to provide you and the teams you support with an insight into the status of your engineering organization.

Over the past year, John started noticing a set of 7 specific patterns that keep showing up in every company he has worked with. He now uses these patterns (archetypes) as a spectrum to better understand and explain how an organization can get further along in their DevOps transformation journey.

Ruslan will tell from his own experience how it is possible to live without DevOps and what are the results of this decision.

UI is boring, and YAML is tricky. We wrote Kotlin DSL which describes what services we have, not how to deploy them. New services are popping up every week, so to speed up the process we gave developers a chance to describe what to deliver — not how to do it — in the form of code, the way they like.

Kubernetes in production is just the tip of the iceberg. Deeper lies the big ecosystem with monitoring, logging, routing and delivery. That system is what is necessary for your applications functioning and for analyzing their work in dynamic environment. Evgeny will tell how it's organized at 2GIS, share lifehacks, traps and his own tools.

When you are developing an alerting system, you have to make decisions that require expertise in development, operations and design (in the best sense of all these words). That's what we'll talk about.
