Join us for a action-packed Kubernetes San Antonio Meetup with two fanastic presentations! Kubernetes Application Lifecycle and Best Practices What should you consider prior to deploying Kubernetes? Join Edmund Ochieng as he explores potential issues and best practices when deploying Kubernetes. He will draw comparisons between GKE and self-hosted environments during the talk. About Edmund While not working, he loves riding his bike, tinkering with tech stuff and working on other DIY projects. Istio: Making a Mesh of Microservices To account for any (or all) of this ‘stuff’, you have historically had to include several libraries in your code and write code to support those libraries. But aren’t *micro* services supposed to be small … micro, even? Enter Istio and sidecar containers and the Service Mesh. Implement all of the above without changing your code. Move these operational concerns away from developers and into the domain of the operations people. Go home Friday at 5. This session will introduce Istio and show some of its capabilities, giving you the information you need to start using the next generation of microservice tools. About Don Don's overarching belief is this: "A program is not a communication between a developer and a machine; it's a communication between a developer and the next developer."

Microservice Architecture means a lot of ‘things’ you have to prepare and account for. Just to rattle off some concepts (buzzwords): Load balancing, routing, circuit breakers, Canary and Blue/Green deployments, pool ejection, tracing, monitoring, chaos engineering, dark launches STAHP. JUST STAHP!
