Description

Please Provide a small paragraph that describes your proposal

After working with various customers and end-users over the last few years I developed an itch that required scratching, namely that deploying, automating, scaling, upgrading and repairing of HA Kubernetes clusters was a pain. Traditionally the approach required using numerous layered tooling to provide this functionality (along with their own configurations to manage), I decided that there may be a better approach. The original design has continued to grow and grow in terms of functionality (scope creep 😱 ), but it's been a fun experience so far.

This session will cover:

• The requirements for a HA Kubernetes cluster and the problems it presents
• The design for an alternative approach with kube-vip.io
• Expanding the architecture to manage service type:LoadBalancer
