Prior to this role, Herb served as the CTO at La Haus, a leading PropTech in LatAm. During his tenure at La Haus, he successfully led the migration from monolithic to a microservices which included the early adoption of Karpenter.
Karpenter: best practices and cost optimization techniques
Karpenter is a Kubernetes node lifecycle manager launched in 2021 by AWS, it has joined the CNCF SIG Autoscaling and transitioned to the beta phase. Karpenter has become a de facto standard to maximize the scaling properties of Kubernetes, it has been adopted already by Azure and GCP into their managed Kubernetes services.
As Kubernetes gains widespread adoption across organizations for mission-critical workloads, it becomes crucial to establish standardized approaches to scaling. This encompasses not only the technical aspects but also the rationale behind scaling decisions and the appropriate timing for it. Additionally, it is imperative to evaluate the costs, encompassing operational overheads, cognitive complexities, and environmental repercussions.
In this session, we will examine best practices ant techniques that strike a harmonious balance between optimizing performance, controlling costs, and promoting sustainability within Kubernetes environments with Karpenter.
The Service Mesh Journey: Harnessing Istio's Power for Enterprise-Grade Kubernetes Networks
This talk will trace the historical development of service mesh architecture from its origins to today's sophisticated implementations, before diving deep into hands-on strategies for leveraging Istio's powerful capabilities. Attendees will learn how to implement robust security practices including mTLS and fine-grained access controls, master advanced traffic management techniques for intelligent routing and load balancing, and build resilient systems using Istio's circuit breaking and fault tolerance features. Whether you're new to service mesh concepts or looking to enhance your existing Kubernetes infrastructure, this session provides actionable knowledge for implementing production-grade service networking solutions that address real-world challenges in modern distributed systems.
