Kubernetes Global Balancer (KGB) is an open-source project designed to solve the global server load balancing problem and challenge in cloud94. It is a cloud-native solution that is simple to use, does not require any management cluster, and has no single point of failure.
- KGB was created to solve the global server load balancing problem in a cloud-native way
- It is designed to be simple to use and does not require any management cluster
- KGB has no single point of failure and is designed on top of a well battle-tested DNS protocol
- KGB integrates with environmental DNS and steers traffic to a secondary cluster if the primary cluster fails
- KGB makes applications globally highly available

The presentation discusses the use cases and benefits of the Captain Kubernetes deployment lifecycle management toolkit, which provides observability and automation for Kubernetes deployments.
- Captain Kubernetes provides observability and automation for Kubernetes deployments
- Use cases include preventing bad deployments during maintenance windows, supporting quality gates, and running evaluations after deployments
- Captain Kubernetes allows for monitoring and tracing of application deployments across different stages
- The Captain metric server brings observability directly into the cluster by exposing Kubernetes native metrics
- This allows for configuration of HPA, Argo Rollout, and Flux to use Kubernetes native metrics

The presentation discusses the relevance of DNS in Kubernetes clusters and the ways to contribute to the coding community.
- DNS is still relevant in Kubernetes clusters even with software-defined networking
- Contributing to the coding community can be done through GitHub, adding company name to adopt the project, and becoming a maintainer
- SDN allows for more flexibility in assigning IP addresses in a cluster

Cloud native has shifted from just a concept to real-world practices that power digital transformation. However, new tech brings in both changes and challenges. Fast iteration, data governance, AI-powered industrial production, global services with first-class user experience, etc. All these are the concerns to take care of.As one of the earliest cloud native adopters and contributors, we have been pushing the boundaries of cloud native and sharing our innovations with the community through open source. We also created and donated several CNCF projects to solve real-world problems and improve our productivity and efficiency. We will show some use cases to demonstrate how these projects empower us to create new value from cloud computing.Join us in this talk to learn more about our cloud native journey and vision. Let’s uplift productivity with openness and innovation together.

Managing change in the open source community
- Engage with the community to gather insights and contribute back to the framework
- Write a pitch that includes the expected efforts and success stories, but also the need for money
- Be prepared for change in the industry, including new vendors and changing narratives
- Manage change by shopping for alternatives, tackling claims, updating the narrative, and exploring partnerships

In this session, you will hear the latest from the CNCF Environmental Sustainability TAG. We’ll focus on the findings exploring the Cloud Native Sustainability landscape, the landscape of organizations that we collaborate with, and the Cloud Native Sustainability maturity model! We highlight current bottlenecks and challenges and provide guidance and opportunities to contribute to sustainability yourself. This will introduce you to cloud native projects that you can use today to build your tech stack a little more sustainable.

When deploying to Kubernetes we often talk about applications, but wait … What is an application in the cloud native world? Is it a chart, a git repository, or a bundle of manifests? In the first part of this talk, we’ll highlight some application definition formats and their different approaches. But an application is not _just_ its core business logic. What about supporting services like observability, identity, and data stores - are they part of an app? How are they included in an app? An emerging answer to this is developer platforms and platform engineering. We will show you why platforms are the optimal way to enable this and the first steps on how to build one and integrate it with your apps. In this talk, we’ll give you some insights on building developer platforms to deliver cloud-native applications based on the work of the TAG App Delivery GitOps, Operator and Platform Working Groups, and their whitepapers.

The importance of succession planning and knowledge transfer in Cloud native projects
- Cloud native projects are experiencing turnover and external factors that impact the community and bring innovation, but also strain and change on projects
- Maintainers and contributors may experience burnout and imposter syndrome, making succession planning and knowledge transfer crucial
- Scaling knowledge glaciers and distributing knowledge through documentation, community engagement, and contribution is key
- Establishing trust within the community and contributing back to the project helps with succession planning and ensures diversity and innovation in the project
- Designing communities into layers of leadership, including canopies of maintainers, sub canopies of technical leads, and ground cover of new contributions, is important for year-round blooms and successive plantings
