KEYNOTE SESSION

Senior Distinguished Engineer, Red Hat

Kubernetes as the Control Plane for the Hybrid Cloud

Wednesday, May 5, 2021 @ 10:45 AM CEST 

 

The history of Kubernetes is one of continual evolution. Starting with a set of simple yet powerful, declarative primitives for automating the deployment and management of cloud native applications, Kubernetes rapidly evolved to support an expanding set of workloads and use cases. More recently Kubernetes has expanded beyond workloads to manage its own underlying infrastructure and Kubernetes native infrastructure services like compute, storage and more. In this session we will discuss this evolution and look ahead and explore what it would take to make Kubernetes the control plane for the hybrid cloud.

Konveyor Community BoF

Community Tools to Accelerate the Journey to Kubernetes

Join us on Thursday, May 6th @ 3:00-3:45 p.m. CEST

At organizations everywhere, system administrators and developers are faced with requests to digitally transform their frameworks so enterprises can benefit from IT modernization with Kubernetes. But taking that containerized leap requires a fundamental change in configuration and architecture. It’s like looking at a before and after renovation photo without directions to show you how to get from one to the next. What happens in between? And how can you pull that off too?

 

The Konveyor community exists to accelerate this journey to Kubernetes. Konveyor is a community of people passionate about helping others modernize and migrate their applications for Kubernetes by building tools to help  users rehost, replatform, and refactor their applications to Kubernetes. In this session we will discuss the tools that exist in the community - Crane, Forklift, Tackle, and Move2Kube - along with the communities they intersect with such as a Velero and Restic. Bring your questions about rehosting, replatforming, and refactoring and let’s learn together!

Demo Theatre

Use Kubernetes-native Integrated GitOps CI/CD Workflows

Christian Hernandez, Technical Marketing Manager, Red Hat

 

In this demo, Christian Hernandez, Technical Marketing Manager at Red Hat, will review how to build a GitOps workflow using Kubernetes-native CI/CD tools Tekton and ArgoCD all within an OpenShift deployment. See how Operators integrate into your development pipeline to deliver a GitOps workflow.

To watch this demo, visit the demo theatre tab under the Sponsor Showcase.

Mass migrate VMs to Kubernetes and move containers across clusters at scale

John Matthews, Manager/Senior Principal Software Engineer, Red Hat

Miguel Pérez Colino, Principal Product Manager, Red Hat

Fabien Dupont, Manager, Software Engineering & Senior Principal Engineer, Red Hat

 

See a demo for 2 of the 5 open-source tools that are part of the konveyor.io community. You'll see how you can mass migrate virtual machines to KubeVirt, how you can move containers across clusters – specifically OpenShift 3.11 to the latest version, a look into the other use cases the Konveyor community has developed tools for, and the new capabilities that will be developed. 

To watch this demo, visit the demo theatre tab under the Sponsor Showcase.
