Agenda

4:30 AM	Door Opens & Networking
5:00 AM	Welcome and Birthday Celebrations	Kick-off with a bang as we dive into a decade of Kubernetes and its impact on the tech world. Birthday party
5:15 AM	Kubernetes for the next decade \| Speaker: James Blair, Specialist Architect, Red Hat	Kubernetes is now a teenager! We've come a long way on our journey. For many of us, how we operate our clusters & the behaviour of those clusters has now become a well-understood muscle memory. Is how we do things now what we want though?? In this talk, let's step back briefly and ask ourselves if how we've done things for the last ten years is how we want to do things for the next ten years. We will then explore emerging ideas that could address those questions and shape Kubernetes' evolution for the decade ahead.
5:30 AM	Lightning Talks: Women in IT empowerment \| Speaker: Roxy Rice
5:36 AM	Lightning Talks: 10 years of Kubernetes: You’ve grown up so fast! \| Speaker: Caleb Woodbine
5:42 AM	Lightning Talks: Orchestrating Your Career as a Cloud Native Engineer \| Speaker: Saikiran Dusari
5:48 AM	Lightning Talks: Rebuilding our Managed K8s service: A Cluster API journey. \| Speaker: Dale Smith
6:00 AM	Fighting AI with AI: Securing Kubernetes for the Next Decade \| Speaker: Tess Davis, Senior System Engineer, Palo Alto Networks	Have you been using GenAI to write better emails, maybe to write your helm chart or review it for you? Could you use GenAI to red-team your own Kubernetes deployment? Happy 10th Birthday Kubernetes! It has been a fantastic ten years. We have seen only the beginning of GenAI's disruption to our daily work and lives. It is difficult to predict how different a day in the life of a Kubernetes operator will look when we are here celebrating again in 10 years. While some question whether “this AI thing” is over-hyped, there is no doubt that “the bad guys” are using LLMs to make more targeted attacks on the precious data that Kubernetes and its guest business processes are the portal to. In this session, we will discuss how the threat landscape has changed with GenAI and how Kubernetes architects and operators can bring us back to a level playing field by fighting AI with AI.
6:15 AM	Picking needles from the haystack - how to find the right vulnerabilities in your containers and build a bridge to DevSecOps \| Speaker: Patrick Hanley	It's not a secret - Containers are particularly challenging when it comes to managing vulnerabilities, presenting different problems to both engineering and security teams. Addressing these challenges allows both teams to build a bridge and start a journey to DevSecOps with a positive experience. Get ready to focus as Patrick talks through the issues, the opportunities, how to start and how Sysdig helps solve this unique problem - all in under 10 minutes!
6:30 AM	Thank you, Wrap-up & Networking
