Over the past several years, Intuit has migrated to Kubernetes running in the public cloud and now has over 1,700 applications and services running on over 270 clusters. Intuit's cloud-native platform has accelerated the development velocity of Intuit's 5,000+ developers while improving performance and reliability and reducing operational overhead.
In this talk, Todd Ekenstam, a Principal Software Engineer in Intuit's Kubernetes platform team, will share details of how Intuit achieved this and lessons learned along the way, and what it means to build an Application-centric Kubernetes Platform. In addition, Todd will demonstrate the Open Application Model and KubeVela and how you can use these open-source tools to implement an application abstraction to improve software engineers' experience using Kubernetes.
Todd Ekenstam is a Principal Engineer at Intuit building a platform for secure, multi-tenant Kubernetes infrastructure supporting applications serving Intuit's ~50 million customers. Todd has worked on various large-scale distributed systems projects during his 25+ year career, ranging from hierarchical storage management, peer-to-peer database replication, enterprise storage virtualization, two-factor authentication SaaS, and most recently, Kubernetes clusters.
