DRA Allocates, But Who Enforces? Closing the GPU Sharing Gap with HAMi

With Kubernetes v1.36, DRA's partitionable-devices and consumable-capacity features reached beta and are now enabled by default. This means pods can request part of a GPU, and the scheduler will not overcommit a device's capacity. But does this solve the problem of idle GPU usage? Not quite. DRA handles allocation, but not enforcement during runtime. After a pod starts, the Kubernetes API does not stop a process from using more than its assigned share. Enforcing limits is still up to the driver, which today means using MIG's fixed hardware partitions or, if using time-slicing, having almost no enforcement.

In this session, we'll take a practical look at HAMi, the CNCF Incubating GPU virtualization middleware that addresses the enforcement gap in software. We'll trace a shared GPU request from start to finish, covering the device plugin, mutating webhook, scheduler extender, and the in-container library that intercepts CUDA calls to keep workloads within their assigned slice. Finally, we'll also see how HAMi works alongside DRA using its own DRA driver, rather than competing with it.

How to Survive and Thrive in a Multicluster World

Over the last few years, we’ve seen a shift in how organizations operationalize their Kubernetes clusters. Instead of huge, monolithic production clusters, we’re seeing a marked shift to multicluster Kubernetes environments, using entire clusters to isolate development teams or manage workloads.
The multicluster world can bring in dramatic wins for reliability and operational efficiency, but of course it has its challenges! In this talk, we’ll explore this fascinating world, from why the shift is happening, how to effectively use a service mesh and GitOps-style workflows to make multicluster secure, reliable, and observable, the pros and cons of multi-cloud rather than simple multicluster, and how new technologies like federated Services affect the multicluster world. Join us to learn how it all comes together!

Apps Simplified: Use a Mesh from Day 0

Developers working on the next killer cloud-native application always run into the same obstacles at the start: choosing a cloud, tackling the ingress problem, sorting out persistent storage, will the clusters be pets or cattle? What's almost always overlooked is the insecurity and unreliability of communications in the cluster. These concerns get put off for later, and over and over, that causes pain.
Instead, use a service mesh right from the start! You get security, reliability, and observability from the moment you build your first microservice, without needing to put extra work into your application. These things are necessary, but the mesh can handle them for you, and with a little care it can make handling them easy.
In this session, we'll talk about best practices, pitfalls to avoid, and the simplest way to get started. Join us to learn how to make your cloud-native application secure, reliable, and observable from the very beginning.
