Cloud Native Live: Evolving Security hosted by Prisma by Palo Alto Networks

Date: Monday, November 18, 2019
Time: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Location: San Diego Convention Center
Registration Fees: USD $50 donated to CNCF Diversity Scholarship Fund

Security teams are challenged by cloud native – organizations are running more apps on more platforms in more places than ever before. These apps are constantly changing while threats and compliance requirements continue to grow. At the same time, cloud native provides an opportunity to do security in a fundamentally better way – more automated and more integrated with development. In this edition of Cloud Native Live, we bring together industry leaders, customers, and partners to talk about how they’ve made this promise real and how you can evolve your own security organization to not just enable cloud native but to capitalize on it. Go deep not just on threats and countermeasures but also how to leverage cloud native technologies to improve the efficiency and capacity of your security team.

At this Kubecon San Diego co-located event, we’ll discuss this challenge, hitting on specifics like:

• How is cloud native security different than the cloud security you already know?
• How do you do more than just “shift left” and really integrate runtime security intelligence back with developers?
• How does a cloud-native, container-first approach change the traditional “firewall” model of security?
• How do you build security that spans all your modern compute options – from VMs to containers to serverless and everything in between?

Modern Service Mesh and API Management hosted by Kong

Date: Monday, November 18, 2019
Time: 9:00 AM – 2:45 PM
Location: San Diego Convention Center
Registration Fees: USD $299, 50% donated to CNCF Diversity Scholarship Fund

Breakfast & Registration
(9am – 10am)

API Gateway & Ingress Management
(10am – 12pm)

Ingress management is an important part of your configuration and operations. When services are exposed outside a cluster, one needs to take care of authentication, observability to maintain SLOs, auditing, encryption and integrations with other third-party vendors, amongst other things.

During this workshop, we’ll go through the architecture and design of an Ingress layer, and set up Kong on Kubernetes.

We will interact and configure Kong via `kubectl` to expose the services running inside the cluster, perform transformations, traffic throttling, authentication, logging on traffic flowing through the cluster.

Lunch & Networking
(12pm – 1pm)

Service Mesh
(1:00pm – 2:45pm)

Service mesh is a new pattern to build reliable distributed and decoupled applications, but often too complicated to implement with 1st generation control planes. Kong takes a new approach to service mesh with Kuma in order to build modern architectures across a large variety of platforms, including Kubernetes and VMs. Kuma is a universal control plane that addresses limitations of 1st generation service mesh technologies by enabling seamless management of any service on the network.

We’ll walk you through easily setting up service mesh across multiple environments, and enabling security and observability – in any network – automatically. We will introduce new concepts and products along the way, and let developers and architects of any skillset being comfortable with service mesh.

Registrants may choose to attend morning or afternoon sessions. Light breakfast, lunch and refreshments will be provided.

NSMCon hosted by the Network Service Mesh Community

Date: Monday, November 18, 2019
Time: 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM
Location: San Diego Convention Center
Registration Fees: USD $50 donated to CNCF Diversity Scholarship Fund

Why Attend NSMCon?

Are you running workloads in multiple clusters? Across multiple clouds: on-premises, hybrid, multicloud, or public cloud? Do they need to interact with legacy workloads running in less “cloudy” environments? Network Service Mesh (NSM) ties them all together, at the granularity of individual workloads, not cluster/VPCs/data centers.

NSM is a community-driven CNCF Sandbox project that is rapidly gaining momentum because of its ability to simplify connectivity between workloads, independent of where they are running. It extends an IP reachability domain to workloads running in multiple clusters, legacy environments, on-premises, or in a public cloud, communicating with the protocols they are currently using.

NSM does this at the granularity of individual workloads. Your workloads have connectivity to just the workloads they need nothing more, nothing less. NSM brings the useful features of a Service Mesh from the lofty heights of HTTP all the way down to IP itself. Applications and Application Service Meshes, such as Istio, run unaltered on top, leaving the hybrid/multicloud IP connectivity to NSM.

The project emerged organically as a community project to solve these problems by applying the Service Mesh thought process all the way down to IP with the global peering mentality of the Internet itself – without breaking your existing environment.

Join the people building and using NSM at NSMCon for a day of tutorials, deep dives, and use cases to learn how NSM works, what it can do for you, and, most importantly, what’s coming next.

How to register: Pre-registration is required. To register for NSMCon , add it on during your KubeCon + CloudNativeCon registration.
