Mastering Windows Monitoring in Kubernetes Environments - Mansi Kulkarni & Kanika Rana, Red Hat

Monday September 16, 2024 11:20 - 12:00 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

Are you struggling to monitor Windows on Kubernetes as a developer? With the limited support stack available, it can be a challenging task to keep track of everything. Kubernetes now supports HostProcess containers on Windows nodes. As a result, the Windows exporter, a Prometheus exporter for Windows, can be deployed as a host process pod. This feature is introduced as an add-on in the kube-prometheus project. This talk will implement a monitoring stack using Windows exporter on a Windows node in Kubernetes. We start by diving into various metric collectors, their functionalities, and utilization. Subsequently, demonstrate how to implement the Windows exporter, configure a ServiceMonitor, and deploy a Prometheus instance. Once Prometheus is up and running, we highlight the differences in the monitoring approach compared to Linux machines. Finally, we complete the monitoring experience with a Grafana dashboard analyzing the collected metrics.

Developing on Containers with Dev Containers - Hrittik Roy, Loft Labs

Monday September 16, 2024 12:15 - 12:55 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

Cloud computing has been primarily used by companies for production environments for quite some time now. However, a small group of users have found ways to move their development environment to the cloud. This allows them to access all their shared libraries, build tools, and software development kits (SDKs) on the cloud. As a result, they can build and ship their applications natively on the cloud. Gartner reports that 60% of cloud workloads will be developed and deployed using Container Development Environments (CDEs). In this talk, you will primarily focus on how you can simplify the structure of your projects by utilizing modern standards like devcontainer.json and open source CDEs such as DevPod ( devpod.sh ) to reduce the cognitive load for contributors and eliminate unnecessary obstacles. Moreover, DevPod handles the lifecycle of the infrastructure it runs on, and it can even suspend cloud resources automatically to save on costs. By the end of the talk, you will make local development much easier while saving costs.

Lightning Talk: Kustomize Your Operator - Moritz Wanzenböck, LINBIT

Monday September 16, 2024 14:15 - 14:25 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

More and more Operators automate deployment of cloud native applications in Kubernetes. Operators often automate the whole process of setting up and maintaining applications, including setting up the necessary workload resources, such as Deployments, StatefulSets and more. This poses a challenge for us Operator developers. Oftentimes, users of our Operator have specific requirements for the deployed workloads, restricting them to specific nodes, requiring additional configuration, added sidecar containers and many more. This talk shows how using kustomize in our Operator, we can simplify our own Operators while still allowing users the full range of customization. This even also allows for quick iteration during feature development.

Lightning Talk: Optimizing Kubernetes Multicluster Backup & Restore - Hường Đinh, Viettel Solutions

Monday September 16, 2024 14:25 - 14:35 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

In this presentation, I aim to address critical challenges in Kubernetes cluster management, particularly focusing on optimizing multicluster backup and restore processes using Velero. The current state of Kubernetes cluster management emphasizes the critical importance of implementing robust backup and restore processes. However, a challenge arises when dealing with multiple clusters, requiring the installation of Velero on each cluster, resulting in complex and resource-intensive multicluster Kubernetes environments. To address this issue, the proposed solution advocates for a centralized Velero installation, allowing for the backup and restore of individual clusters using their corresponding kubeconfig. The talk delves into the design architecture of multicluster backups, outlining how to integrate this approach with Velero's existing features. This innovative approach not only simplifies management but also optimizes resource utilization in a way that aligns with the evolving landscape of Kubernetes cluster operations. I aim for the audience to leave with actionable insights and a clear roadmap for implementing centralized backup strategies in their own multicluster setups.

Lightning Talk: Process Level Packet Filter for Containers Using eBPF - Ruturaj Mohite, IIIT Bangalore

Monday September 16, 2024 14:35 - 14:45 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

With the rise in container use, it's becoming crucial to safeguard compromised containers from malicious exploitation. A compromised container could be hijacked to join a network of computers to participating in a Denial of Service attack, leak sensitive information back to an attacker or be used to steal compute resources for mining cryptocurrency. Ruturaj introduces a packet filter built using eBPF to filter packets based on their L3 and L4 destination metadata (such as destination IP address and port) as well as the process and container (cgroup) of origin. This filter also detects any new containers at runtime and filters their traffic.

Lightning Talk: Cognitive and Self-Adaptive System for Effective Distributed-Tracing (Using Jaeger, Open Tracing) - Susobhit Panigrahi, Broadcom

Monday September 16, 2024 14:45 - 14:55 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

In the realm of distributed systems and microservices architecture,dynamic API tracing systems play a pivotal role in diagnosing API failures and performance issues.However, current implementations often sample only a fraction of traces(1-5%) due to storage and scale constraints,leading to a skewed distribution favoring normal execution traces.This bias hampers effective diagnosis,impacting both developers and SRE teams.Our proposed solution employs a Machine Learning and Cognitive approach to rectify this imbalance in trace collection. By dynamically adapting based on actual data, the system learns to capture higher-interest traces, helping root causing issues. This innovative approach has significantly improved the Mean Time to Resolve (MTTR) for SRE teams, revolutionizing issue triaging within the organization. The Adaptive Sampling technique, driven by data analysis, standardizes trace distribution, reduces storage requirements, and dynamically adjusts the sampling rate.It lowers costs & resource utilization for tracing services, also streamlines trace metric analysis for SRE,offering a forward-looking solution to common challenges in the Observability and Infrastructure space.

Let Them Eat CAKES: A Sweet Dive Into a Modern Cloud Networking Stack. - Christian Posta, Solo.io

Tuesday September 17, 2024 14:00 - 14:40 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

Previous generations of networking made up of point solutions organized by Conway's law are inconsistent, incompatible, and slow down developers. Open source alternatives have emerged to provide compelling networking solutions for Platform Engineers but may overlap. In this talk, we introduce the concept of "the CAKES stack" for modern cloud networking based on OSS projects: (C)ilium, (A)mbient mesh, (K)ubernetes, (E)nvoy, and (S)PIFFE/SPIRE. A twist on the stack, BAKES, includes (B)ackstage.io for a platform's internal developer portal which ties everything together like frosting. Each layer in the "cake" was specifically chosen as it represents the "best of breed" for the role required. These technologies come together to provide a consistent solution for zero trust, observability, ingress/egress, traffic control and significantly improved developer experience and velocity.

Your K8s Infinity Gaunlet: The Marvel of KEDA and Cluster-API for Infinite Scale - Scott Rosenberg, Terasky

Wednesday September 18, 2024 16:05 - 16:45 CEST

Hall M2 (Level 2)

One of the greatest out of the box features of K8s is its auto-scaling capabilities, which has a naive implementation or more advanced scheduling capabilities through native tooling. However, both of these models are reactive and not proactive in nature. What if we could employ proactive event-driven scaling of our clusters?! Over our many years of cloud native operations at scale, with the right tools we could! Enter KEDA (AKA Kubernetes Event-Driven Autoscaling). KEDA was built to make just this type of intelligent auto-scaling possible - this includes everything from event-driven and predictable actions like scaling up and down for predictable bursts of usage or shutting down dev clusters during specific and non-working hours, to managing scaling based on your workloads and message queues, or even your APMs and based on the metrics it ingests. In this talk we’ll walk through auto-scaling on steroids with KEDA, how it can be supercharged through CRDs, and in particular the cluster-API which now makes it possible to provision, update, customize and delete K8s clusters declaratively––that together are a game changer when it comes to the infinite scale K8s makes possible.
