10. TODAY’S BUSINESS OBJECTIVES
• Increasing customer expectations for always-on apps
• Reimaging a highly collaborative Dev and Ops organizations
• Leveraging cutting-edge technologies
• Modernizing application deployments and availability

11. CUSTOMER USE CASE
VIDERUMS MOVE TO KUBERNETES
Viderum (http://www.viderum.com) is a SaaS provider of open
data management platforms
1. Implemented a SaaS solution that can scale to support thousands of customers using “traditional”
software - CKAN (http://www.ckan.org)
2. Setup based on a custom deployment of kubernetes including deis/workflow, traefik, crunchy postgres,
Ceph, Minio etc.
3. Implemented scaling and application/service clustering by utilizing data from kubernetes and docker
metrics
4. Simplified workflow and encapsulated a lot of the cluster complexity to the developers.
5. Optimized resources and enabled delivery of more than 100 data portals per node
6. Zero downtime for deployment and easy rollback.
7. Enabled deployment of new portals within seconds

12. SCALING KUBERNETES
Scaling is pretty easy, fast and without downtime
1. Scaling pods when you need more resources for any service
a. In mere seconds
b. Autoscaling
2. Scaling nodes when you need to grow performance
of whole cluster.
a. Seamless horizontal scaling
b. Built-in advanced mechanisms for load distribution

13. TOP CONSIDERATIONS IN DEPLOYING KUBERNETES
Kubernetes is a complex framework and it is up to you to use
it cleverly
1. Calculate at start all resources needed (cpu, memory, storage).
2. Plan good distribution of services across cluster like databases, caching, workload and
similar.
3. Implement good monitoring and metrics tools.
4. Understand your cluster and utilize the vast amount of metrics flowing through it
5. Kubernetes provides basis but is not enough, combine it with other tools that will help in your
use-case.
