Virtual event

About this event

------
NOTE - Day 2 of KubeVirt Summit moved to a separate event!
Please go to the KubeVirt Day 2 event to attend on 10/Feb: https://community.cncf.io/e/m76vzx/
------
The KubeVirt community will hold its first ever dedicated online event about all things KubeVirt. The KubeVirt Summit is a 2-day virtual event to discover, discuss, hack and learn about managing virtual machines in Kubernetes using KubeVirt.
Everyone with an interest in KubeVirt is welcome to join, users and contributors alike.
Looking forward to meeting you there!

Agenda

2:00 PM	Welcome Session	Join us for the Welcome Session, where KubeVirt Project Leads will catch you up on news and explain how the rest of the event will run.
2:30 PM	Automated migration of VMs from VMware or OpenStack to KubeVirt	KubeVirt opens scenarios for a Kubernetes based infrastructure that can handle both VMs and containers. Wouldn't it be great to just automatically move all your Virtual Machines from legacy environments and consolidate your whole infrastructure around Kubernetes and KubeVirt? Coriolis performs automated migrations among most common clouds and virtualization solutions, like VMware, OpenStack, AWS, Azure, AzureStack, OCI, Hyper-V and now also KubeVirt. During this session we will perform a live demo showing how to migrate a VM from VMware vSphere to KubeVirt and a separate demo showing the migration of a VM from OpenStack to KubeVirt.
3:00 PM	How to avoid merging broken code with automated testing using prow	This session is about creation of prow jobs in general. Prow is a Kubernetes based CI/CD system. We will cover what is a prow job what job types are available how to configure job triggers testing jobs: requirements, obstacles and pitfalls configurations for merge gating other usages of jobs (publishing, bumping, ...) Attendants will be able to know what job types are available, which one to use for a specific problem and how to verify their job works on their machine (TM) before creating a PR.
3:30 PM	Building great VMs with common templates	Common templates are covering most of the nowadays operating systems. Users can easily create e.g. Windows vms, without complicated settings. Presentation will cover: What are common templates Which operating systems are supported How common templates works How to use them Attendants will be able to know what are common templates and how to use them.
4:00 PM	Automating KubeVirt with Tekton Pipelines	This talk will introduce a new effort to bring KubeVirt specific tasks to Tekton Pipelines (CI/CD-style pipelines on k8s). The goal of this project is to have tasks for managing VMs and running virtualized workloads as part of the pipelines flow. The speaker will showcase what pipelines you can build at the moment, and what are the plans for the future.
4:30 PM	KubeVirt Data Protection and Forensics Forum	Let's get together to discuss plans/ideas to extend KubeVirt's data protection and forensics functionality.
5:00 PM	Zero Downtime KubeVirt Updates	KubeVirt has a very precise and resilient method for ensuring zero downtime updates occur. In this session I'll cover the general strategy behind how we approach updating KubeVirt from a developer's perspective as well as discuss future improvments to our update process. Attendees will come away with an understanding of how KubeVirt's update process has been designed, how it is tested, and what future enhancements are coming soon.
5:30 PM	Introducing volume hotplug in KubeVirt	Introduction into the current state of volume hotpluging in KubeVirt, what is possible, what is not possible and what are the challenges.
6:00 PM	Accelerating VNF and CNF with PCI passthrough and KubeVirt	This sesion will introduce PCI device passthrough to containers and VMs managed by KubeVirt. An overview of PCI passthrough and the Generic Device API will be provided. This will be illustrated with a specific practical use case that uses Intel QAT to accelerate VNF/CNF in edge computing.
6:30 PM	Harvester: an Open Source HCI solution built on Kubernetes and KubeVirt	Project Harvester is a new open source alternative to traditional proprietary hyperconverged infrastructure software. It is built on top of cutting-edge open source technologies including Kubernetes, KubeVirt and Longhorn. In this talk, we will talk about why we decide to build Harvester, how did we integrated with KubeVirt, and the lessons we've learnt along the way. We will also have a demo of current release of Harvester by the end of session.
