Session + Live Q&A
The Kubernetes Expert Panel
Kubernetes helps us better manage the complexities of operating microservices. It helps provide sets of abstractions for deploying and running our services. However, these benefits don’t always come easy. In the Kubernetes Expert Panel, we bring together several Kubernetes knowledge leaders to discuss some of the tricker bits around security, networking, and essential complexity of operating Kubernetes. You can expect conversation around service meshes (sidecar and no sidecar), container runtimes, and leveraging Kubernetes as a foundation for the platform you’re building. After some conversation, we’ll open it up to the audience to have your questions answered.
