About the Talk
Building a Kubernetes Distribution From Scratch: Lessons From an Official Distribution Journey
What does it take to build a Kubernetes distribution from the ground up? In this session, we'll explore the journey of creating Canonical's Kubernetes distribution, diving into the technical challenges, strategic decisions, and key lessons learned—insights that apply to any distribution or open-source project.
We'll break down the fundamentals: What exactly is a Kubernetes distribution? How do they differ, and what do they entail? From managing cluster state to release automation and documentation, we'll cover the critical components that shape a production-ready distribution.
By the end of this talk, you'll have a clear understanding of what goes into building and maintaining a Kubernetes distribution, along with the essential factors that set one apart from another.
Manage VMs on Kubernetes - Introduction to KubeVirt
KubeVirt is the solution for bridging up traditional virtual machines with modern Kubernetes environments. This talk provides a technical introduction to KubeVirt and its core concepts. We'll take a look into how to use it for traditional workload and how to build and manage virtualized Kubernetes clusters, running both legacy and cloud-native applications on a single platform.
The session will include a live demo, showcasing KubeVirt's capabilities with Linux and Windows VMs and exploring real-world use cases. Join us to see how you can unify your infrastructure and streamline operations with KubeVirt.
