How not to start with Kubernetes – Lessons learned from DevOps Engineer Christian Heckelmann

To k8s or not – that should be the first question to answer before considering k8s. Granted – in many cases k8s is going to be the right choice but don’t just default to k8s because its hip or cool.In this episode we have Christian Heckelmann (@wurstsalat), DevOps Engineer at ERT, talking about his journey with k8s which started with installing k8s 1.9 on bare metal. He gives a lot of great advice based on his presentation “How not to start with k8s” such as Understand Networking, Don’t use :latest, Set Resource Limits, Train The People, Provide Templates and more.To get started with Kubernetes we encourage you to look at the YouTube Tutorials posted on TechWorld with Nana.https://twitter.com/wurstsalathttps://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1EL9OYe-1eOPXh6U8SMHnQxs8pcmr01d-uwoWoFnzUaY/edit#slide=id.g5420f4ebeb_0_5https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdngmbVKX1Tgre699-XLlUA

The brutal truth about digital performance engineering and operations.

Andreas (aka Andi) Grabner and Brian Wilson are veterans of the digital performance world. Combined they have seen too many applications not scaling and performing up to expectations. With more rapid deployment models made possible through continuous delivery and a mentality shift sparked by DevOps they feel it’s time to share their stories. In each episode, they and their guests discuss different topics concerning performance, ranging from common performance problems for specific technology platforms to best practices in development, testing, deploying and monitoring software performance and user experience. Be prepared to learn a lot about metrics.

Andi & Brian both work at Dynatrace, where they get to witness more real world customer performance issues than they can TPS report at.
