This document discusses Istio, an open source service mesh that provides traffic management, telemetry and security for microservices applications on Kubernetes. It introduces key Istio concepts like the sidecar proxy Envoy, the control plane components Pilot, Mixer and Citadel, and how they work together to provide service discovery, load balancing, failure recovery, access control and other capabilities across microservices. The presentation concludes with an offer to demonstrate Istio's features in more depth.

Microservice API Gateways with NGINX Slides from talk given on Tuesday August 2nd, 2017 at the Denver Open Source Users Group (DOSUG). (NGINX is pronounced "engine x".) Microservices are a popular architectural solution. Clients of microservices may experience some difficulty keeping track of the various instances and endpoints they have to call. An API gateway can help manage large numbers of microservices and hide the infrastructure complexity from your clients. We will review a microservice architecture before and after the addition of an API gateway. An API gateway is a reverse proxy. A reverse proxy handles incoming requests from clients and calls a service to get the data to satisfy that request. The reverse proxy returns that data to the client. Many developers write these proxies by hand in custom code, not realizing there better solutions available. We will mention a number of popular solutions, some open source and some cloud-based services. For this talk, we will focus on NGINX, a popular open source reverse proxy and API Gateway. (NGINX also sells an enterprise offering, NGINX Plus, but this talk will only cover the features available in the open-source version.) We will show how to set up NGINX as an API Gateway. We will dive into the configuration and operation of NGINX.

Is Serverless just running functions in a cloud? It’s more than that! Serverless computing refers to the concept of building and running applications that do not require server management. It describes a deployment model where applications, bundled as one or more functions, are uploaded to a platform and then executed, scaled, and billed in response to the exact demand needed at the moment. During the talk I’ll show how to use Knative both on Kubernetes and on OpenShift platform. Hopefully we will see why your organization should consider using Knative as one of its primary deployments models on hybrid cloud world.

GitOps è un nuovo metodo di CD che utilizza Git come unica fonte di verità per le applicazioni e per l'infrastruttura (declarative infrastructure/infrastructure as code), fornendo sia il controllo delle revisioni che il controllo delle modifiche. In questo talk vedremo come implementare workflow di CI/CD Gitops basati su Kubernetes, dalla teoria alla pratica passando in rassegna i principali strumenti oggi a disposizione come ArgoCD, Flux (aka Gitops engine) e JenkinsX

GitOps Days Community Special Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/0v5bjysXTL8 New to GitOps or been a long-time Flux user? We'll walk you through the benefits of GitOps and then demo it in action with a sneak peak into the next gen Flux and GitOps Toolkit! * Automation! * Visibility! * Reconciliation! * Powerful use of Prometheus and Grafana! * GitOps for Helm! For Flux users, Flux v1 is decoupled into Flux v2 and GitOps Toolkit. We'll demo how this decoupling gives you more control over how you can do GitOps and with fewer steps! Join Leigh Capili and Tamao Nakahara as they show you GitOps in action with Flux and GitOps Toolkit. Note to our Flux community that Flux v2 and the GitOps Toolkit is in development and Flux v1 is in maintenance mode. These talks and upcoming guides will give you the most up-to-date info and steps to migrate once we reach feature parity and start the migration process. We are dedicated to the smoothest experience possible for our Flux community, so please join us if you'd like early access and to give us feedback for the migration process. We are really excited by the improvements and want to take this opportunity to show you what the GitOps Toolkit is all about, walk you through the guides and get your feedback! For more info, see https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/. Here's our latest blog post on Flux v2 and GitOps Toolkit updates: https://www.weave.works/blog/the-road-to-flux-v2-october-update

This talk covers the past, present, and future of Microservices at Squarespace. We begin with our journey to microservices, and describe the platform that made this possible. We introduce our idea of the “Pillars of Microservices”, everything a developer needs to have a successful production service. For each pillar we describe why we think it is important and discuss the implementation and how we utilize it in our environment. Next, we look to the future evolution of our microservices environment including how we are using containerization and Kubernetes to overcome some of the problems we’ve faced with more static infrastructure.

I'm covering a new trend in distributed enterprise architecture – microservices. How the leading technology companies like Netflix and Amazon come to use that approach. How does it help them to scale their infrastructure. And how the newest set of tools in the Spring family would help you to apply those design principles in practice. Spring has always been about patterns and Spring Cloud brings you implementation of several widespread ones for distributed apps. And we'll try to show why DevOps should come in front of Microservices approach

Edge Computing along with 5G promises to revolutionize customer experience with immersive applications that we can only imagine at this point. The edge will include PNFs, VNFs, and mobile-edge applications; requiring containers, virtual machines and bare-metal compute. But while edge computing promises numerous new revenue streams, managing and orchestrating these edge infrastructure environments is not going to be a seamless, instant process. In this webinar, experts in NFV orchestration discuss the concerns you must address in the transition to the edge, and show how you can use available open source tools to create a single management environment for PNFs, VNFs, and mobile-edge applications.

e’ll explore what a service mesh is and what it can do for your microservices. Are the claims of observability, resiliency, and WAF features real? Are they useful during development, production, or both? Using pictures and demos, we’ll find out! This session will also briefly cover how a service mesh works, giving us a mental model with which to explore and evaluate after the talk. Matt will show a simple installation and demo, giving us all the knowledge to go home and try for ourself.

I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

And still use UI-based configurations to implement concrete approval processes. In this session, we will share ideas behind such a solution and show a few lines of code to get you started.

I'm excited to share my latest predictions on how AI, robotics, and other technological advancements will reshape industries in the coming years. The slides explore the exponential growth of computational power, the future of AI and robotics, and their profound impact on various sectors. Why this matters: The success of new products and investments hinges on precise timing and foresight into emerging categories. This deck equips founders, VCs, and industry leaders with insights to align future products with upcoming tech developments. These insights enhance the ability to forecast industry trends, improve market timing, and predict competitor actions. Highlights: ▪ Exponential Growth in Compute: How $1000 will soon buy the computational power of a human brain ▪ Scaling of AI Models: The journey towards beyond human-scale models and intelligent edge computing ▪ Transformative Technologies: From advanced robotics and brain interfaces to automated healthcare and beyond ▪ Future of Work: How automation will redefine jobs and economic structures by 2040 With so many predictions presented here, some will inevitably be wrong or mistimed, especially with potential external disruptions. For instance, a conflict in Taiwan could severely impact global semiconductor production, affecting compute costs and related advancements. Nonetheless, these slides are intended to guide intuition on future technological trends.
