Simplifying Kubernetes autoscaling with Karpenter - Abstract
The session would dive into different strategies for managing Kubernetes capacity on AWS. We will learn about the different mechanisms to provide compute to Kubernetes on AWS, and how Karpenter can be used to automatically provision the right compute resources to handle your cluster’s applications at the right time, helping you to take full advantage of the cloud with fast and simple Kubernetes cluster provisioning.

How to leverage AIOps in the cloud
DevOps teams have broad responsibilities but limited capacity. AIOps can enhance and partially replace a range of processes and tasks, including monitoring, event correlation and configuration auditing.
In this talk we will have a look at different technologies including Amazon DevOps Guru, which uses ML to detect abnormal operating patterns so you can identify operational issues before they impact your customers.
