• What we'll do
This talk was first presented at the Pre-FOSDEM Kubernetes event in Brussels at the beginning of February. It was so informative and full of useful information that one can apply when setting up and running Kubernetes clusters, we've requested that Sergiusz and Alex do the talk again, in an extended format. If you want to learn more about installing and running Kubernetes from experienced practitioners, this meetup is for you.

We look forward to seeing you for an evening of shared learning and fun. All questions welcome, from beginner to advanced.

Snacks & drinks will be provided.

TALK DETAILS:

"Infrastructure components for Kubernetes deployments", Sergiusz Urbaniak & Alex Somesan

Abstract: There is a lot of buzz and projects around Kubernetes installation and deployment stories. Many installer options exist, starting from DIY solutions like "Kubernetes the hard way" up to ready-to-use cloud provided solutions like AWS EKS and Azure AKS.

This talk tries to demystify the concepts behind a Kubernetes deployment. It outlines the necessary building blocks for networking, storage and compute for a cloud-based Kubernetes installation and provides a concrete example using Terraform.
