Writing Reliable, Scalable, Fault Oblivious Code On K8s the Easy Way

2022-10-27

Authors:   Kendall Roden, Alice Gibbons


Abstract

Remember when writing connected application code to do something innovative was the hard part? These days developers have to do more than ever, not only to write innovative and elegant code to run their business, but now also have to deal with all the faults, outages, disasters, hot spots, scale points, and concurrency issues that come with building distributed apps and microservices at scale. In this session, you will learn about the best practices to write distributed app code that sings at scale directly from the team that helped bring you Dapr and a number of hyper-scale cloud services in production. It will focus on the topics of resiliency, distributed locking, and optimization in common tasks like async messaging & Pub-Sub, state management, secrets and more. You will also learn about abstractions and implementations to do this the easy way in your favorite programming model and language, while targeting Kubernetes.
