Agenda:
- community update
- guest speaker: Henning Jacobs (Zalando) - Kubernetes at Zalando + Kubernetes Failure Stories

Talk abstract: Everybody loves failure stories, but maybe for the wrong reasons: Schadenfreude and Internet comment threads are the dark side; continuous improvement through blameless postmortems, sharing incidents, and documenting learnings is what motivated me to compile the list of Kubernetes Failure Stories. Kubernetes gives us an infrastructure platform to talk in the same "language" and foster collaboration across organizations. In this talk, I will walk you through our horror stories of operating 100+ clusters and share the insights we gained from incidents, failures, user reports and general observations. I will highlight why Kubernetes makes sense despite its perceived complexity. Our failure stories will be sourced from recent and past incidents, so the talk will be up-to-date with our latest experiences.
