CNCF Jerusalem: June Event with Itay Shakury, Regina Voloshin and Ben Hirschberg
WE ARE FINALLY BACK!
Never a dull moment in our little country or Jerusalem specifically - but we haven't forgotten our AWESOME group, and we have a STELLAR lineup of CNCF Ambassadors and Maintainers for our next event.
Join Itay Shakury, Regina Voloshin and Benjamin Hirschberg for three fantastic talks!
5:30PM - Mingling and Snacks
6:00 PM - TALKS
What is Happening to Open Source?!, Itay Shakury
Open Source has always been a delicate ecosystem, a rare coexistence of interests, passion and opportunity. That delicate balance is being tested now, and the first signs are starting to show. You might have felt it, I know I have, a gradual change in my own experience as user and maintainer. Small things that only when combined reveal a larger pattern. I can now see four clear trends that I believe are happening right now, and are fundamentally changing the open source landscape. In this talk, I will share my observations and insights about what and how the open source experience is changing, and also why it's happening now (spoiler alert: AI). You will learn to navigate the new open source landscape, the new practices and culture that is emerging, the tools and policies that are in use, and the way it affects you, as an open source user, contributor, or maintainer.
6:20 PM
Eliminating Hidden Argo CD Pitfalls in Your GitOps Workflow, Regina Voloshin
Argo CD maintainer at Octopus Deploy in-person As teams rapidly adopt Argo CD and embrace GitOps-based delivery, they often get off to a strong start—but gradually accumulate structural and architectural issues. While these problems may appear harmless initially, they can slowly degrade developer productivity, reduce system clarity and ultimately weaken the core advantages of GitOps. This session highlights some of the common anti-patterns, such as:
Dynamically creating Argo CD Applications Defining
Applications instead of leveraging ApplicationSets Using Helm to package Applications rather than ApplicationSets
Embedding hardcoded Helm values directly within Argo CD Applications
And more.
6:40 PM
TBD, Ben Hirschberg - CTO & Co-Founder, ARMO
7:00PM - More Community Conversations
