How to Ensure Continuous Kubernetes Reliability in 2024 with Marino Wijay

In 2024 everyone already knows that deploying and managing a single vanilla cluster is pretty easy, but past a certain scale, things become messy and very unmanageable.

Join Komodor's own Marino Wijay for an exclusive LIVE workshop focused on enhancing Kubernetes Reliability. In this session, we'll explore the tools and cultural shifts required for a successful implementation of Kubernetes, that actually delivers on its promised value!

This live workshop is designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to achieve elite DevOps standards in your Kubernetes environments and provide a superior developer experience for your application teams.

Marino will masterfully teach you how to:

1. Alleviate tooling fatigue, streamline proactive maintenance, and improve strategic planning for capacity and MTTR reduction
2. Cover the essentials of managing Kubernetes network performance, resiliency, metadata, events, and logs
3. Leverage advanced techniques to boost the reliability of your Kubernetes environments

The workshop will conclude with a Komodor demo session and a short Q&A.

7. What is Reliability? - Right-sized workloads and infrastructure (CPU/MEM) - Policies: Address missing guardrails - Reduce service latency - Reduce tooling and login fatigue - Streamlined proactive maintenance, capacity and capability planning - Strategic MTTR reduction - Infrastructure, load balancers, ultra fast redundant network, working DNS - Retries, resiliency, and service invocation planning - Platform consolidation: workloads, infrastructure metadata, events, logs
