The document discusses Pivotal Container Service (PKS), a container management platform from VMware and Pivotal. PKS provides an enterprise-grade solution for provisioning, operating, and managing Kubernetes clusters across multiple clouds. It integrates Kubernetes with VMware technologies like NSX-T, vSphere, and vRealize to provide networking, security, storage, and management capabilities. PKS aims to simplify running containers at scale in production by handling tasks like cluster operations, upgrades, and monitoring.

It highlights how NSX delivers inherently secure infrastructure, high performance distributed networking, and availability for PaaS. The document also notes how NSX can help organizations run things cheaper and be more efficient through improved data center operations and reduced CapEx.
You can’t have cloud-native applications without a modern approach to databases and backing services. Data professionals are looking for ways to transform how databases are provisioned and managed. In this webinar, we’ll cover practical strategies you can employ to deliver improved business agility at the data layer. We’ll discuss the impact that microservices are having in the enterprise, and what this means for MySQL and other popular databases. Join us and learn the answers to these common questions: ● How can you meet the operational challenge of scaling the number of MySQL database instances and managing the fleet? ● Adding to this scale challenge, how can your MySQL instances maintain availability in a world where the underlying IT infrastructure is ephemeral? ● How can you secure data in motion? ● How can you enable self-service while maintaining control and governance? We’ll cover these topics and share how enterprises like yours are delivering greater outcomes with our Pivotal Platform managed MySQL. Now you can scale without fear of failure.

Tomas Pizarro Moreno presented best practices for maintaining a Helm chart repository. He discussed storing charts in services like AWS S3, GitHub Pages, or Harbor. It is important to thoroughly test charts by running linting, installing with different configurations, and performing verification and functional tests. Charts also need ongoing maintenance like keeping dependent Docker images up-to-date and addressing user feedback. Finally, charts should be published to directories like Helm Hub to make them discoverable.
With the growing adoption of Kubernetes, organizations want to take advantage of containerized Microsoft SQL Server 2019 to optimize transactional performance and accelerate time-to-insights from their business-critical data. However, as enterprises embrace hybrid cloud strategy, they need to consider several aspects based on the performance, cost and data protection requirements for running enterprise-grade SQL Server databases. In this webinar, we will compare and contrast various cloud-native platforms for SQL Server that would help CIOs, DevOps engineers, database administrators and applications architects to determine the most suitable platform that fits their business needs. Join us as we explore some exciting results from a recent performance benchmark study conducted by McKnight Consulting Group, an independent consulting firm, to compare the performance of Microsoft SQL Server 2019 on the best possible configurations of the following Kubernetes platforms: Diamanti Enterprise Kubernetes Platform Amazon Web Services Elastic Kubernetes Service (AWS EKS) Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) Topics will include: Platform considerations and requirements for running Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Performance comparison and analysis of running SQL Server on various platform Best practices for running containerized SQL Server databases in Kubernetes environment
Today, one of the big concepts buzzing in the app development world is service mesh. A service mesh is a configurable infrastructure layer for microservices application that makes communication flexible, reliable and fast. Let’s take a step back, though, and answer this question: Do you need a service mesh? Join this webinar to learn: What a service mesh is; when and why you need it — or when and why you may not App modernization journey and traffic management approaches for microservices-based apps How to make an informed decision based on cost and complexity before adopting service mesh Learn about NGINX Service Mesh in a live demo, and how it provides the best service mesh option for container-based L7 traffic management

Jürgen Kress of Oracle EMEA presented on swarm computing as the next generation of clouds. Current cloud solutions like IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS were discussed. An order to cash process example was used to demonstrate the need for integration across clouds. Swarm computing was defined as the behavior of aggregates of clouds working together to support business processes in a self-organizing manner. Oracle's cloud platform and Exalogic Elastic Cloud were presented as examples of platforms enabling swarm computing.
The document discusses migrating to cloud native solutions. It defines cloud native as an approach that exploits the advantages of cloud computing using containers, microservices, and other modern technologies. This allows applications to be scalable, resilient, and manageable. The document outlines the benefits of cloud native and provides a "trail map" to transitioning applications. It also discusses common challenges like technical debt and failing to meet CI/CD expectations, and provides recommendations to address them such as automating processes and simplifying architectures.

This document discusses strategies for modernizing applications and replatforming them using Project Kubernetes Service (PKS). It outlines how companies have different options for packaging and running workloads, such as using containers, microservices, serverless functions, and monolithic applications. PKS aims to provide the right runtime for each workload type. The document compares container orchestrators, application platforms, and serverless functions, noting that PKS aims to push workloads higher in the platform hierarchy for more flexibility and less enforcement of standards while lowering development complexity and improving operational efficiency. It provides recommendations for getting started with migrating workloads to PKS, such as lifting and shifting applications with minimal modernization, leveraging platform capabilities, and fully modernizing
The Kubernetes cloud native landscape is vast. Delivering a solution requires managing a puzzling array of required tooling, monitoring, disaster recovery, and other solutions that lie outside the realm of the central cluster. The governing body of Kubernetes, the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, has developed guidance for organizations interested in this topic by publishing the Cloud Native Landscape, but while a list of options is helpful it does not give operations and DevOps professionals the knowledge they need to execute. Learn best practices of setting up and managing the tools needed around Kubernetes. This presentation covers popular open source options (to avoid lock in) and how one can implement and manage these tools on an ongoing basis. Learn from, and do not repeat, the mistakes of previous centralized platforms. In this session, attendees will learn: 1. Cloud Native Landscape 101 - Prometheus, Sysdig, NGINX, and more. Where do they all fit in Kubernetes solution? 2. Avoiding the OpenStack sprawl of managing a multiverse of required tooling in the Kubernetes world. 3. Leverage technology like Kubernetes, now available on DC/OS, to provide part of the infrastructure framework that helps manage cloud native application patterns.
Kubernetes enables possibilities to develop cloud native microservices or decompose traditional applications making them more technologically advanced with the help of containers. Currently, most of the Kubernetes solutions are offered on top of VMs and there is a room for further improvements. Implementing nested architecture of application containers running inside system containers opens additional flexibility of resource allocation and management, accelerates provisioning of the clusters and pods, as well as cuts the overall costs. Or in other words it enhances 3 Ps - Provisioning, Performance and Price. During this session Ruslan Synytsky (CEO and co-founder of Jelastic PaaS) reviews the possibilities of running a Kubernetes cluster inside nested containers, what configurations should be taken into account, and how to overcome the barriers on the way to more efficient Kubernetes hosting.
