Ready to dive a little deeper into the world of Kubernetes? Understand the first principles of a cloud native infrastructure, and then dig into our lab environment to containerise and deploy your first application on Kubernetes. This training is designed for attendees who are early in their cloud-native journey—you will walk out with more knowledge of basic concepts and greater comfort in working with containers.

Attendees will:

• Learn about Containers and use Docker files to containerise applications
• Become familiar with authoring YAML files and their syntax
• Understand Kubernetes from a user facing concept perspective (Pods, Services, Deployments, Labels, etc.)
• Become familiar with kubectl and its commands/usage
• Understand the cloud native and design principles of Kubernetes and its architecture
• And more

Prerequisites

• Laptop with the latest version of Chrome or Firefox
• Linux concepts and command line proficiency
• General networking proficiency

How to Register: Coming soon. Limited to 100 attendees – don’t miss out!

Cloud Native Security Day is designed to bring together the cloud native security community together to discuss and share current challenges and solutions in cloud native security.  This event provides a single place for people involved or getting involved in cloud native security to get together in a vendor neutral space.

This event allows and encourages open collaboration and sharing of cloud native security accomplishments and roadblocks. Cloud native security is a multi-objective and multi-constrained problem space spanning many areas. Pretty much everything falls into security, from identity management to storage solutions. Cloud Native Security Day (#cnsecurityday) is intended to drive collaboration, discussion, and knowledge sharing of cloud native security accomplishments and roadblocks. Get connected with others that are passionate about security. Learn from practitioners about pitfalls to avoid, hurdles to jump, and how to integrate security into your cloud native project, architecture, and enhance team awareness on security.

Full details are available here.

How to Register: Pre-registration is required. To register for Cloud Native Security Day, add it on during your KubeCon + CloudNativeCon registration.

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. For more information and the schedule visit the NSMCon 2020 website.

The goal is to unite the serverless practitioner community and present end users with comprehensive strategies to understand serverless in a cloud native context. To do that, we plan to create a full-day single-track serverless conference that follows our initial successful work in the CNCF serverless working group and surrounding projects.

Full details are available here.

Join this workshop to see the true power of Apache Cassandra™ combined with Kubernetes cloud-native resources and best practice DevOps pipelines to support today’s modern application needs.
Today’s applications require extreme performance, availability, and scalability in order to respond to hockey stick growth and viral trends. Cassandra has answered this call for over a decade as the premier distributed database for production-at-scale workloads. From financial services transactions to entertainment streaming services, Cassandra is present in the applications and backend architectures that impact our daily lives.
In this workshop, we will introduce you to Cassandra’s architecture and logical fault domains as well as the Kubernetes components that complement this architecture. We’ll then shift to simplifying your architecture by leveraging operators and custom resource definitions, so you can think about your Cassandra cluster as a logical unit instead of a collection of individual Kubernetes resources.

All attendees will receive a FREE Cassandra Certification voucher, normally priced at $375.

How to Register: Pre-registration is required. To register for Building a DevOps Pipeline, add it on during your KubeCon + CloudNativeCon registration.

You will receive an email from DataStax with instructions on how to access the workshop. For questions regarding this event, please reach out to jessica.benton@datastax.com.
