Registration Fees: USD $100 donated to CNCF Diversity Scholarship Fund

DevSecOps is a term that’s thrown around these days, referring to the ability to not only automate the build and deployment pipeline of application development, but to also slipstream in security along the way. In this one day event, we will dive deep and show you various examples throughout that pipeline of how to make DevSecOps a reality in your organization. We will bring speakers from across the pipeline tooling continuum to discuss security throughout the automation process, as well as a few customers who have successfully implemented this in their own environments. You’ll come away with practical implementation recommendations of how to make DevSecOps a reality rather than a buzzword.

Location: Fira Gran Via Hall 8.0 Room D1
Registration Fees: USD $149 if registered by April 15; Standard rate of USD $169 starting April 16

Cloud-Native Transformation Summit 2019 is a one-day event for the KubeCon community to look at how enterprise organizations are moving into production-level Kubernetes and transforming their applications and infrastructure operations into Cloud-Native technologies.

As many enterprises move from proof of concept to production, they face challenges in securing, maintaining visibility, scaling, and troubleshooting application development and infrastructure operations. But, it’s not just technology–there are important processes, organizational and cultural considerations to consider on the journey to a cloud-native enterprise.

Join fellow cloud-native practitioners from the user and technology ecosystem to hear real-world insights and learnings. You’ll walk away with a blueprint to address technology, process, organizational and cultural considerations, such as:

• How containers and microservices have radically changed visibility and security requirements for enterprise applications
• Challenges of scale and how to resolve them when you move from an application on a host to a sophisticated, dynamically orchestrated, multi-container architecture
• Producing and implementing a comprehensive cloud-native security strategy among IT, Security teams, DevOps, DevSecOps
• How visibility and monitoring at scale may be the missing links in reaching your goal of a resilient cloud-native infrastructure

If you want to be ahead of the shift and help lead change, you’ll want to attend this event.

Extending Kubernetes with Controllers and Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) is quickly becoming commonplace. Users are now developing their own extensions to automate their applications and infrastructure. This emerging practice has been enabled by the growing set of tools designed to make developing these custom APIs easy.

Of these tools, Kubebuilder, a Kubernetes sub-project, has been adopted by the Kubernetes project and end-users alike. It serves as a framework for rapidly building and publishing Kubernetes APIs by providing simple abstractions and automation for the common components involved with a controller.

Attendees will learn how to approach development using best practices and methodologies for building Kubernetes Controllers. In the second half, attendees will use Kubebuilder to build, test, and deploy their own custom extension.

Prerequisites:
+ Laptop
+ Basic Golang experience

How to Register: Pre-registration is required. To register for Introduction to CRDs with Kubebuilder, add it on during your KubeCon + CloudNativeCon registration.
