From Apply to Reconcile: The Next Evolution of Infrastructure as Code
What if infrastructure was continuously reconciled and capable of healing itself when things drifted from the desired state?
In this session, we'll explore the shift from apply-based provisioning to continuous reconciliation. Through practical examples and live demos, we'll look at how reconciliation can eliminate configuration drift, reduce reliance on state files, and enable self-healing infrastructure.
The examples use Azure, but the concepts apply regardless of cloud provider.
Crossplane in practice: Building and operating cloud infrastructure with Kubernetes
Managing cloud infrastructure often means juggling Terraform state files, pipelines, and manual processes—especially when networking, governance, and landing zones are involved.
In this session, you’ll see how Crossplane takes a different approach by using continuous reconciliation through Kubernetes, removing the need to manage state files and making infrastructure behave more like any other declarative system.
We’ll walk through practical examples, from provisioning resources like virtual networks to delivering full landing zones through reusable building blocks. Along the way, we’ll look at how to maintain control and governance, avoid common pitfalls like policy conflicts, and enable safe self-service for development teams.
Live demos will show both individual resource provisioning and complete environment setups.
While the examples use Azure, the patterns apply to any cloud.
Can Chaos be good for your infrastructure?
Chaos might seem like the last thing you'd want to introduce into your production environment. But what if we could use chaos to our advantage? In this session, I will delve into the concept of Chaos Engineering and demonstrate how it can help improve the stability and robustness of your services. We will explore practical examples and scenarios where Chaos Engineering can uncover weaknesses before they become critical issues. Finally, I will show you how to use Azure Chaos Studio to implement these principles in your own infrastructure, enabling you to create more reliable and resilient systems.
