Migrating from Self-Managed Kubernetes on EC2 to a GitOps Enabled EKSWeaveworks
Did your company start down the path of building a cloud native platform using Kubernetes with the goal of enabling developers to innovate faster and increase productivity, but then run into challenges keeping it operating in an optimal way?
In this session, Weaveworks will discuss how to migrate from self-managed Kubernetes on EC2 to a GitOps managed Shared Services Platform (SSP) on EKS. A SSP built on EKS and managed with Weave GitOps provides developers and operators with common workflows to update both applications and infrastructure. With every change in version control, full audit trails are available, and security is enforced. While at the same time enabling easier rollbacks and faster mean-time-to-recovery (MTTR). In short, a Weave GitOps managed SSP increases developer velocity while boosting stability.
How to operate a hybrid Kubernetes architecture, using managed EKS in the AWS Cloud and EKS-Distro on premises.
How to structure your infrastructure repository to efficiently manage multiple teams.
How to use Kubernetes RBAC to provide secure cluster multi-tenancy.
How to use GitOps to promote releases across a hybrid set of independent clusters.
How to accomplish data and operational sovereignty.
CloudWorld: What Does Cloud-Native Mean Anyway?Grace Jansen
Terms cloud-native & microservice architecture have been used interchangeably for years. Microservices have benefits, but also bring challenges, so are they really the go-to solution in all cases? Better understanding & some failed projects led to an evaluation of the suitability of microservices, and resulted in new interest in the various architecture styles in the cloud. We'll look at microservices and monoliths in the context of cloud-native.

Four considerations when monitoring microservicesJason Bloomberg
The adoption of microservices add a new layer of complexity to an already complex application environment. When application issues arise, it becomes difficult to pinpoint the source and, too often, you find yourself in lengthy war rooms or assigning experts to triage every issue. As a result, brand loyalty, customer satisfaction and innovation are negatively impacted. The old approach to monitoring application performance just isn’t working. A new approach is needed. In this session we will discuss four areas that you should consider which will change the way you think about monitoring microservices
Application Security in the Cloud - Best PracticesRightScale
RightScale Webinar: May 20, 2010 – This webinar presents security implementation for applications running in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment with the RightScale management platform, using best practices developed by HyperStratus. See the archived video at http://vimeo.com/rightscale/application-security-in-the-cloud-best-practices.

Modernizing Applications with Microservices and DC/OS (Lightbend/Mesosphere c...Lightbend
**Featuring Aaron Williams, Head of Advocacy at Mesosphere, Inc. and Markus Eisele, Developer Advocate at Lightbend, Inc.**
The traditional architecture that enterprises run their businesses on has typically been delivered as monolithic applications running in a virtualized, on-premise infrastructure. Public and private cloud technologies have changed everything, but if the applications are not designed, or re-designed, appropriately, then it is impossible to take advantage of the advances in both distributed application services and hybrid infrastructure. Consequently, enterprise architects are looking to microservices-based architectures as a means to modernize their legacy applications.
This webinar with Lightbend and partner Mesosphere will introduce a new framework specifically designed to help developers modernize legacy Java EE applications into systems of microservices and then discuss exactly what is required to run these distributed systems at enterprise scale.
Lightweight PaaS as a vitally-needed solution for efficient applications hosting, that helps to overcome such road blockers as:
- complexity of managing infrastructure
- lock-in and overpaying
- wasting time on server configuration
- lacking compatibility with legacy applications
- GDPR compliance
In this presentation, we show how Data Reply helped an Austrian fintech customer to overcome previous performance limitations in their data analytics landscape, leverage real-time pipelines, break down monoliths, and foster a self-service data culture to enable new event-driven and business-critical use cases.

Caching for Microservices Architectures: Session IVMware Tanzu
In this 60 minute webinar, we will cover the key areas of consideration for data layer decisions in a microservices architecture, and how a caching layer, satisfies these requirements. You’ll walk away from this webinar with a better understanding of the following concepts:
- How microservices are easy to scale up and down, so both the service layer and the data layer need to support this elasticity.
- Why microservices simplify and accelerate the software delivery lifecycle by splitting up effort into smaller isolated pieces that autonomous teams can work on independently. Event-driven systems promote autonomy.
- Where microservices can be distributed across availability zones and data centers for addressing performance and availability requirements. Similarly, the data layer should support this distribution of workload.
- How microservices can be part of an evolution that includes your legacy applications. Similarly, the data layer must accommodate this graceful on-ramp to microservices.

Application Modernisation through Event-Driven Microservices confluent
Microservices have emerged as a widely discussed and adopted way to build modern and scalable applications. They are easier to build, manage and maintain than monoliths due to smaller code bases; they isolate complexity, allowing for smaller, more agile teams to create services, and they are flexible—allowing the use of various platforms, programming languages, and tools since these choices affect only an individual service and a small team at a time.
Patterns and Pains of Migrating Legacy Applications to KubernetesQAware GmbH
Open Source Summit 2018, Vancouver (Canada): Talk by Josef Adersberger (@adersberger, CTO at QAware), Michael Frank (Software Architect at QAware) and Robert Bichler (IT Project Manager at Allianz Germany)
Abstract:
Running applications on Kubernetes can provide a lot of benefits: more dev speed, lower ops costs and a higher elasticity & resiliency in production. Kubernetes is the place to be for cloud-native apps. But what to do if you’ve no shiny new cloud-native apps but a whole bunch of JEE legacy systems? No chance to leverage the advantages of Kubernetes? Yes you can!
We’re facing the challenge of migrating hundreds of JEE legacy applications of a German blue chip company onto a Kubernetes cluster within one year.
The talk will be about the lessons we've learned - the best practices and pitfalls we've discovered along our way.

3. The Emerging Need for Data Transformation
Your data organization needs a path to be a part of the transformation to cloud
native applications
● Certified DBAs spend wasted time running a ticket queue
● Growth in software practice and business bottlenecked by data/data team
● Developer productivity is hindered by data complexity and interdependence
● Held hostage by enterprise database vendors’ licensing tactics
5. ➔ Developers spend inordinate amounts of
time for provisioning and setting up
databases
➔ Cloud infrastructures are ephemeral
requiring hardened availability at the
software layer
➔ New distributed architectures result in an
explosion of database instances
➔ Operators are overburdened with
configuring, managing, and monitoring
databases

14. API access makes change management easier
● Define a API that projects a data model to
match the needs of the consuming
microservices
● API is the only permissible access point to a
microservice’s data
● Data API provides a contract for accessing
data
● Allows more flexibility for (and isolation
from) changes to backing stores
