TALK #1:

"Leveraging Kubernetes features when going from monolithic applications to microservices" by Benjamin Merot, Open Source Specialist at SOS International.

Description:

Containers and Kubernetes aren now familiar names in all layers of IT organisations, no legacy monolithic application is left untouched. From developers to managers, going to a container orchestration platform requires a new mindset.

In this talk you will learn about Kubernetes patterns and common pitfalls when refactoring monolithic applications to run as microservices in Kubernetes. We’ll cover design choices, scalability, reliability, monitoring and telemetry based on the learnings at SOS International and our journey towards Cloud Native.

Benjamin works primarily with developers on Red Hat’s OpenShift platform using his background as a Java Enterprise developer and years of experience with Kubernetes. Benjamin has contributed to open source projects around Kubernetes and automation tools such as Puppet and Ansible.

TALK #2:

"Does Kubernetes deliver on its promise of portability?" by Rasmus H. Hummelmose, Customer Engineer at Google.

Description:

One of the reasons that Kubernetes is the go-to-platform for container orchestration is that it promises ease of workload migration.

By performing such a migration in practice we put that promise to the test.

In this talk you will learn about the migration process and the aspects that make it easier/harder to migrate from one environment to another.
