KubeCon + CloudNative North America 2022

Effectively delivering and operating large and complex cloud-native applications becomes more and more important as companies move an increasing number of applications to Kubernetes. Most companies are building self-service platforms which can be used by individual teams while enabling companies to drive company wide practices. The cloud-native ecosystem provides a large number of projects that help with different aspects of building these platforms. In this talk we will cover all major aspects of the application lifecycle from build, test over to provision, delivery and release all the way to operational management and showcase different tools and how they can be used and combined together. After the talk you will be able to answer all the below questions and more: How can I best build cloud native applications? What are the best approaches to provide standard components like databases, etc? How can I provision infrastructure following the same cloud native approach I use for my application? How can best manage the deployment and rollout process? How can I seamlessly integrate practices like chaos testing? How can I automate the setup of operations requirements like security, observability, …? How can I automate day2 operations at an infrastructure and application level? We will focus on sharing concepts combines with small examples which help illustrate how different aspects can be done with different tools.
