Your Application, Batteries Included: Packaging for Deterministic, Secure, and Portable Delivery
Delivering modern applications consistently across clouds, data centers, and disconnected networks is one of the hardest problems in the Kubernetes ecosystem. Developers and operators are often forced to choose between speed and security, convenience and control. But what if there were a way to package everything your application needs - from containers and manifests to policies, SBOMs, and configurations - into a single, verifiable artifact that just works anywhere?
In this hands-on tutorial, participants will learn how to use Zarf, an OpenSSF Sandbox Project that enables deterministic, portable software delivery. Together we’ll explore how to build a “batteries-included” application package, sign and verify its contents, and deploy it in both connected and airgapped environments. Along the way, attendees will gain insight into secure software delivery paradigms, provenance, and reproducibility all grounded in real-world, practical workflows.
Declarative Edge Kubernetes: Immutable Clusters with Talos + Zarf
Running Kubernetes at the edge is tough. You need simplicity, security, and the ability to work even when the internet is unreliable or completely disconnected.
In this session, we'll show you how to handle these challenges. We’ll deploy and manage an entire Kubernetes cluster in a completely "air-gapped" environment using Talos Linux and Zarf. Talos is a rock-solid, predictable operating system built specifically for Kubernetes. Zarf is the magic that bundles everything; the OS, Kubernetes itself, and all your apps into a single package you can take anywhere.
Join us for a live demo where we'll spin up a Talos cluster from bare metal on-stage with zero internet connectivity. Then, we'll upgrade the entire cluster and its OS right on the spot using a simple Zarf package. You'll leave with a clear blueprint for managing secure, independent Kubernetes clusters at the edge without all the usual complexity.
