The presentation discusses the benefits of a sidecarless architecture for service meshes and the use of ebpf technology. The main goal is to make service mesh infrastructure more reliable and less complex.
  • Sidecarless architecture removes the need for injection and containers, reducing resource overhead and complexity.
  • The use of ebpf technology allows for customization of the Linux kernel to improve reliability.
  • The focus should be on making service mesh infrastructure boring and reliable, rejecting new and shiny features.
  • Z-tunnel is not replacing Envoy, but rather providing an optional waypoint proxy for service counter namespace basis.
  • The goal is to make service mesh infrastructure critical infrastructure that can be depended on.

The presentation discusses challenges in running large Kubernetes clusters and offers best practices to overcome them. It also highlights the importance of using informers and avoiding list calls to improve performance.
  • Running large Kubernetes clusters is challenging despite community improvements
  • Defaults are not always enough and best practices should be followed
  • Avoid list calls and use informers to improve performance
  • Memory and CPU buffer should be maintained to handle bad events
  • Streaming lists in Kubernetes 1.27 can improve memory usage

The presentation discusses the process of implementing multi-architectures in Airbnb's infrastructure to improve price and performance.
  • Focus on one or two workloads that have a business need for better price and performance
  • Form a small pilot group with subject matter experts
  • Upgrade and migrate operating system, languages, runtimes, and open source software
  • Automate the process of building, uploading, and signing packages
  • Invest in performance tooling and analysis

With the motto of "making cluster lifecycle management easy", Cluster API adoption has been increasing each year since its inception. Its pluggable architecture via providers is vendor agnostic and makes its adoption across various infrastructure environments (public clouds, on-premises) easy and gives its users the flexibility of using a variety of infrastructures with the same set of tools and workflows. Writing a provider follows a de-facto pattern (there are >20 providers created following this pattern). The talk “Building Your Own Cluster API Provider the easy way” at KubeCon EU 2022 was well received with 600+ registering (and more than that attending), and many indicating they are at various levels in their provider journey. While the talk touched upon high-level constructs of writing a provider, there is a lot of functionality to be covered in order to make the provider usable or to reach the first release milestone. This tutorial aims to be an in-depth hands-on exercise where the audience can get to a fully CAPI conformant provider starting from scratch.Everything can be done from your laptop. Where possible, please come to the session with the prerequisites installed.

Developers need to prioritize the tools and education around cloud native development and treat it as a critical, lifelong product.
  • Infrastructure used for implementing cloud native development is critical and needs to be treated as such
  • Internal developer platforms need continuous work and adoption of new features
  • Understanding and proper use of cloud native patterns is important
  • Developers need to prioritize the tools and education around cloud native development

SIG Architecture maintains and evolves the design principles of Kubernetes, and provides a consistent body of expertise necessary to ensure architectural consistency over time. The SIG takes care of evolution of conformance definitions, API definitions/conventions, deprecation policy, design principles, and other cross-cutting concerns. In this talk, we will provide an introduction to SIG architecture, including its role and the various subprojects that support its activities. Additionally, we will provide a community update on the status of those efforts.Click here to view captioning/translation in the MeetingPlay platform!

The conference presentation covers both introductory and deep dive material for the Jaeger distributed tracing backend, including the Jaeger operator and metrics work. The presentation emphasizes the importance of instrumenting code for meaningful traces and the challenges of service meshes.
  • Jaeger is a popular open source distributed tracing backend that requires code instrumentation for meaningful traces
  • The Jaeger operator is a cool piece of technology that is part of the project
  • Metrics work has been going on in Jaeger
  • Service meshes present challenges for distributed tracing
  • The speaker's company is a SAS observability company that focuses on an open source-based platform that includes Jaeger
