Introduction and news

In a day when application containerisation has become the industry standard, Kubernetes core components offer us enough capabilities to orchestrate basic containerised applications. As things tend to expand however, there comes the need for further customisation, reducing complexity, as well as overseeing our applications. In this talk, we'll be going through some of the Kubernetes ecosystem's many tools which provide better approaches on networking, resource creation, and monitoring. These tools aid in tackling various limitations of Kubernetes such as adding extra capabilities to Kubernetes clusters, enhancing current ones, or simplifying their mode of operation.

This session will be presented by a surprise guest as mysterious as the cybersecurity challenges that will be discussed.

A community Linux distribution designed for container workloads, with high security and low maintenance' - Flatcar Container Linux is the first Linux based operating system CNCF incubating project. In this presentation, we will go through what makes Flatcar Container Linux secure, easy to deploy and use in the cloud native context of containerization and Kubernetes.
