It’s 9 AM on Monday morning, and you’re eager to dig into the new feature you’ve been designing over the past weeks. You write the code, deploy to testing, send your first request, and… it doesn’t work. Now what?
If you’re new to Kubernetes, this kind of thing can be a showstopper. Kubernetes is powerful and capable, but complex enough that knowing where to look when things go wrong can be a real challenge. This session, we’ll give you what you need for a fighting chance. We’ll look at how Services, Deployments, and Pods hang together; logging and events (and their strengths and weaknesses); basic observability using a service mesh; health checking; and some common gotchas along the way. We’ll use Linkerd for our examples, but everything we show is applicable to other technologies as well. Join us and walk away with tools you can use immediately to make life easier!
