The Kublr Team delivers insights, tutorials, and best practices on how to leverage Kubernetes to enable your Dev and Ops teams to get the most out of the development and deployment of containerized applications. Built on top of upstream vanilla Kubernetes, Kublr allows developers to maintain the desired openness, portability, and pluggability of open source technology, while operations gains multi-factor enterprise security, backup, disaster recovery, and vendor support.

What's Kubernetes? A container orchestrator. Yes, but there is a lot more to it. Well implemented, Kubernetes can function as an infrastructure abstraction running across clouds and data centers, creating a single pool of resources. 

Allowing enterprises to untie themselves from infrastructure provider-specific technology stack and free development to use whichever tool fits their needs best, almost sounds like IT nirvana! 

During this webinar, Oleg, CTO at Kublr, will outline a view of Kubernetes as an infrastructure and cloud abstraction layer, as well as how to implement open source cloud-native technologies while meeting enterprise security and governance requirements: 

- Prerequisites for running Kubernetes in prod; 
- How to leverage fine-grained controls and separation of responsibilities to meet enterprise governance and security needs; 
- What’s needed for a general architecture of a centralized Kubernetes operations layer based on open source components such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Keycloak, etc.

Cloud abstraction, the overlooked power of Kubernetes

Self-healing does not equal self-healing. There are multiple layers to it, whether a self-healing infrastructure, cluster, pods, or Kubernetes. Kubernetes itself ensures self-healing pods. But how do you ensure your applications, whose reliability depends on every single layer, are truly reliable?

During this webinar, Oleg will discuss the different self-healing layers, what Kubernetes does and doesn't do (at least not by default), and what you should look out for to ensure true reliable applications. Hint: infrastructure provisioning plays a key role.

Designing reliable, self-healing cloud native Kubernetes applications

In a microservices world, applications consist of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of components. Manually deploying and verifying deployment quality in production is virtually impossible. Kubernetes, which natively supports rolling updates, enables blue-green application deployments with Spinnaker. However, the gradual rollout is a feature that doesn’t come out-of-the-box but can be achieved by adding Istio and Prometheus to the equation.
During this webinar, Slava Koltovich will discuss canary release implementations on Kubernetes with Spinnaker, Istio, and Prometheus. He’ll examine the role of each tool in the process and how they are all connected. During a demo, he will demonstrate a successful and failed canary release, and how these tools enable IT teams, to properly roll out changes to their customer base without any downtime.

Canary Releases on Kubernetes with Spinnaker, Istio, Prometheus

While developers see and realize the benefits of Kubernetes, how it improves efficiencies, saves time, and enables focus on the unique business requirements of each project; InfoSec, infrastructure, and software operations teams still face challenges when managing a new set of tools and technologies, and integrating them into an existing enterprise infrastructure. 

During this online meetup, Oleg  will discuss what’s needed for a general architecture of a centralized Kubernetes operations layer based on open source components such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Keycloak, etc., and how to set up reliable clusters and multi-master configuration without a load balancer. He’ll also describe how  these components should be combined into an operations-friendly enterprise Kubernetes management platform with centralized monitoring and log collection, identity and access management, backup and disaster recovery, and infrastructure management capabilities.  This presentation will show real-world open source projects use cases to implement an ops-friendly environment using Kublr centralized Kubernetes management as an example.

A Blueprint for Enterprise-grade Centralized Kubernetes Management

If you are wondering whether advanced scheduling in Kubernetes is achievable, the short answer is yes. There are some challenges, however. For instance, you'll need to accommodate every possible real-life scenario a Kubernetes user might encounter. Then, figure out how to leverage advanced scheduling techniques to shape and describe each scenario via simple rules and configurations.

During this webinar, Oleg, CTO at Kublr, will talk about advanced scheduling techniques in Kubernetes. These include resource and environment constraints, affinity and anti-affinity rules, taints and tolerations, custom schedulers and more. You’ll get a run-down of the potential pitfalls and considerations to keep in mind.
