Sovereign-by-Design Cloud-Native Infrastructure
Public sector organizations around the world are embracing open source technologies to increase transparency, reduce vendor lock-in, and modernize service delivery. In this session, I present the Dutch government's approach to building sovereign, secure, and cloud-native infrastructure using open source. Drawing on our experience designing multi-tenant platforms across government data centers, I explore patterns, governance models, and lessons learned that are applicable to regulated environments globally. Also highlighted will be how our alignment with European digital sovereignty and open standards policies enables long-term resilience and innovation.
Applying Creational CI/CD Design Patterns for Scalable and Resilient Cloud-Native Applications
This session explores the integration of Creational Design Patterns into CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment) pipelines, focusing on their application in cloud-native environments. By aligning these patterns with cloud technologies like containerization, microservices, and serverless computing, the approach enables automated, efficient, and scalable software delivery processes. The study highlights how these patterns—Factory Method, Abstract Factory, Builder, Prototype, and Singleton—
streamline pipeline design and enhance scalability, resilience, and security. Real-world scenarios, practical implementations, and optimization strategies provide actionable insights, making the research essential for practitioners in cloud-native software development.
Which Vault? Don't tell me your secret(s)!
Secret management is a crucial aspect of DevOps, as it involves the protection of sensitive data that is used by applications and services. Secrets can include API keys, credentials, tokens, certificates, and passwords that grant access to various resources and systems. If these secrets are compromised, attackers can exploit them to cause damage, steal information, or disrupt operations.
The challenges of secret management is how to securely store, distribute, and rotate secrets in a dynamic and distributed environment. Traditional methods of hard-coding secrets in configuration files or environment variables are not secure, scalable, or reliable. Moreover, secrets need to be updated frequently to comply with security policies and regulations to prevent unauthorized access.
To address these challenges, several tools and frameworks have been developed to provide secret management solutions for DevOps. These tools can help DevOps teams to implement best practices for secret management.
