TALK #1:
Lessons learned writing a k8s operator by Mike Rostermund, Infrastructure Engineer at Humio a Crowdstrike Company
Description:
At the current rate of growth at Humio, we have to be smarter and more efficient at operating Humio clusters. To facilitate this, we've implemented an operator to manage Humio clusters on top of Kubernetes. The goal of the humio-operator project is to make it as easy as possible to run Humio on top of Kubernetes, not only for us, but also for our customers.
Implementing a Kubernetes Operator for a data-heavy stateful piece of software is a complicated matter with a variety of problems to solve and methods for how to solve them. This talk will touch on concrete examples of such problems and how we've decided to solve them.

TALK #2:
Enabling developers while sustaining growth with Backstage by Bjørn Sørensen, Platform Engineer at Lunar
Description:
Lunar has experienced extreme growth in the engineering organization and have been required to find solutions on how to keep engineers productive, informed and confident in all aspects of the full development cycle.
Lunar reached for CNCF sandbox project Backstage to help create a developer portal where all relevant information is collected from external sources, eg. repositories from GitHub. Common functionality is also made available through the web UI of Backstage like message reconstitution and message dead lettering. Lastly the powerful scaffolding engine is used to create new services in less than 5 minutes with everything needed to release to production.
