Agenda

9:30 PM	Doors Open
10:00 PM	CNCF updates	K8s 1.31 Update and more!
10:20 PM	An Intro to Open Source Poutine	“Poutine” is a delicious open-source security scanner designed to detect vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in CI/CD pipelines, including GitHub Actions, GitLab pipelines and Tekton. Come learn more and see a quick demo.
11:00 PM	Kubernetes interaction for dog lovers- k9s.	This talk explores k9s, a terminal UI for managing Kubernetes clusters. K9s offers live cluster state viewing, context switching, deployment scaling, resource depletion, and more. It simplifies tasks like running kubectl commands and viewing secrets.
11:15 PM	The Curious Case of Burning SLOs	In this talk, I explain how a tenant on our platform noticed their SLOs burning. After looking into their application logs, they noticed that during certain times, their application reported many “Connection Refused” errors. Their investigation led them to notice that this was occurring across multiple services across different teams. At this point, they engaged the help of their fellow SRE team. Our deep dive revealed that the root cause was an ungraceful shutdown of NGINX pods. This talk will cover the diagnostic process, including how we traced the problem through the ingress and pinpointed the underlying cause. We will share insights into the methodologies and tools we used to resolve the issue and enhance system stability. Attendees will gain a better understanding of how to approach the issue of ungraceful shutdown of the nginx pods. They will explore how uncovering hidden patterns can lead to robust solutions and improved reliability in cloud-native applications.
11:45 PM	Why network policy from Cilium?	In this talk, we will dive into native Kubernetes network policy to see how that is implemented in cilium and other popular CNI to see the benefits of using cilium in action. Then we will use use Hubble to see how you can easily troubleshoot the network policy related issue with CLI and UI. At last, we will check out the Cilium network policy to see the advanced features that only available through the Cilium network policy.
12:00 AM	Otel me everything about OpenTelemetry	Have you heard about OpenTelemetry (OTel), but you don't know what it is or how to use it? This talk introduces OpenTelemetry, a powerful and open-source observability framework. We will explore how OpenTelemetry standardizes the collection of telemetry data—logs, metrics, and traces—across various platforms. The session will also have a demo on how to instrument an application using OpenTelemetry.
