Closed InAnimaTe closed 5 years ago
Two things knocked out!
Date: June 8th 2019! Format: Same as last year, Dual-track, 4 sessions from 11am-3pm
I've pinged Keith and he'll be able to take pictures for us like before.
@mrbobbytables @jeefy @castrojo Thoughts? Obv names will change etc..
Start | Session | Length |
---|---|---|
10:00 | Doors Open | 1 Hour |
10:45 | Introductions | 15 Minutes |
11:00 | Developer Workflow and Automated Infrastructure | 1.5 Hours |
12:30 | Lunch | 1 Hour |
1:30 | Container Orchestration and Service Mesh with Linkerd | 1.5 Hours |
3:00 | Closing Remarks | 10 Minutes |
Looks good. I'd want to make sure that we let people know that sessions are 1.5 hours so lunch is an hour.
Another thought: Do we want to "open doors" at 10? Gives people 50min to mingle and chat, maybe have some coffee? Then we can do a 10min intro.
I've updated my comment with start times and length to be more clear about what's happening when (incl doors open)
Curt has a conflict that day and cannot attend but sends his regards.
@mattfarina can help us out for Automated Infrastructure, so like, CI/CD, helm, what else could he cover?
@castrojo @mattfarina so I updated the main post with descriptions of each session.
For Automated Infra, we're thinking about the provisioning process like spawning cloud infra, having a fresh cluster provisioned, etc.. but also the ci/cd pipeline and the automated deployment it can facilitate. This could include terraform, kops, helm, jenkins, eksctl, docker-machine, etc..
@castrojo @InAnimaTe With this new description I'm not going to be the best person by a long shot. I'm an apps/workloads person rather than a provisioning cloud infra person. All my provisioning is simple API or "button pushing" these days. Other folks where I work handle the cloud provisioning.
Would it make more sense to concentrate on apps/workloads instead? That would be a larger audience.
This is true, and since I'd really love for @mattfarina to be involved, I'm perfectly fine with a focus on application workloads incl. CI/CD etc..
@mattfarina (cc @castrojo) Give me an idea of a title+description for your ideal session. So long as it doesn't step on the others we have planned (specifically Container Orchestration, see main post), it should fit just fine.
@InAnimaTe what did you have in mind for the Automated Infrastructure
part referring to for the workshop?
@InAnimaTe what did you have in mind for the
Automated Infrastructure
part referring to for the workshop?
Spawning infrastructure using declarative methods with tools like Terraform, eksctl, docker-machine, etc.. See my previous comment too. With bringing Matt Farina in, I've changed it to Automated Workflows to reflect application deployment, CI/CD etc..
These will also get more official names from the people authoring them as we firm things up.
So, we can change it back to Automated Infrastructure
, because that's more my thing. I reached out to my AWS Account rep to see if they have $25 gift certificates for people to run through a hands on experience of bringing up a cluster.
@StevenACoffman get me a description and ill replace the main post as well as the site.
@InAnimaTe How about this:
This workshop will provide hands on experience on setting up and running an AWS Kubernetes cluster using EKS. We will use gitops, and explore kubernetes tools to make the cluster self-driving, with automated management and remedy of common cluster level problems. To achieve this, we will use eksctl, cluster-autoscaler, external-dns, kube-prometheus (prometheus operator), node-problem-detector, draino, node-local-dns-cache, and a dashboard.
Sounds good to me (imma make some minor adjustments) @StevenACoffman I'll update materials
What was the minor adjustments again? I lost them.
This event has happened and was amazing. Events are in Todoist for getting resources back to people.
With such a successful event last year, it's time to start planning the next one! This event will be an extended weekend meetup with multiple facets aimed at engaging, teaching, and bringing people together.
This issue will work similar to #33 except all discussion and checklist items will be managed here instead of in separate issues. I've left quick links to last year's version of each item for reference.
