Panel Discussion: How to Chart Your Own Career Path in Open Source - Ildiko Vancsa, Open Infrastructure Foundation; Nithya Ruff, Amazon; Allison Randal, Capabilities Limited; and Dawn Foster, CHAOSS
Monday September 16, 2024 11:20 - 12:00 CEST
There isn’t one way to build your career in open source as there are a variety of roles beyond writing code and many different routes into those roles. It’s also important for individuals to chart their own path that aligns with their unique experience and interest. In this panel discussion, panelists will share how they got started in their career and their journey over the past two decades. For people looking for jobs in open source, we’ll discuss what we look for in candidates and why it’s not necessary to check all the boxes in job descriptions. We’ll also talk about challenges in balancing your day jobs vs. open source activities during your career, and how to navigate challenges in corporate environments, for instance tying your open source accomplishments or impacts to your company evaluation process so that your growth outside your org is also recognized internally. In addition, we’ll also delve into other challenges and opportunities of an open source career that range from dealing with impostor syndrome, DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) challenges, exploring open source communities for self growth, and more.

Demystifying CNI - Writing a CNI from Scratch - Filip Nikolic, Isovalent
Monday September 16, 2024 12:15 - 12:55 CEST
Whether you're new to Kubernetes or a seasoned veteran, understanding the details of Pod creation and networking is essential. This talk unravels the intricacies of Kubernetes networking by building the simplest of CNIs (Container Network Interface) from scratch. A CNI plugin is a crucial component, enabling communication between containers in a Kubernetes cluster. In just a few lines of code, we'll explore the creation of Pods, how they are assigned IP addresses, and the role of virtual Ethernet pairs in connecting them to the broader cluster. Gain practical insights into real-world scenarios, discover the significance of CNIs in the CNCF and understand why it's fundamental for any engineer operating Kubernetes. This talk equips you with practical knowledge to navigate Kubernetes networking with confidence by empowering attendees with essential CNI concepts and providing a clear understanding of its role in shaping the containerized world.

Why Quantum Safe Encryption Is the Next Y2K, and How to Be Prepared - Joe Winchester, IBM
Monday September 16, 2024 14:15 - 14:55 CEST
Client server computing relies on encryption algorithms to ensure that data sent across networks cannot be read, or faked, by untrusted parties. This is the rock on which financial computing works in a business to customer environment, as well as how data at rest is protected from malicious prying eyes reading our personal data. This talk will cover the basics of how Diffe-Hellman encryption works, how symmetric and asymetric keys operate, as well as how all of this will soon become unsafe because of quantum computing. As well as showing the audience the basics (no maths degree required) this talk will show how quantum safe encryption is able to address this, and how folks can get wise and get started.

The Power of Mentorship: Your Path to Open Source Success - Stephanie Taylor, Google
Monday September 16, 2024 16:20 - 17:00 CEST
Developers interested in making their first contributions to open source communities often aren’t sure where to start - what community is a good fit, will the community be interested in their ideas, how do they take that first step into a community? You have learned some basics about open source but where do you put those coding skills to work and find cool open source communities doing interesting work you care about? For 20 years Google Summer of Code has helped bridge this gap for over 20,000 beginners to open source (students, young professionals, career switchers, etc.) and helped them find over 1,000 welcoming communities prepared to mentor them as they start their open source journey. Many mentorship programs (Outreachy, LFX) are designed to bring new contributors into the open source ecosystem to keep diverse perspectives coming into OSS. Learn about GSoC and other programs that you can join to put into practice the OSS skills you have been learning.
