Meeting #6 - OpenShift Developers @ Red Hat Ireland Day

Registration here: https://www.redhat.com/en/events/red-hat-day-ireland-2022

Hi All

the next iteration of the Usergroup will be part of Red Hat Ireland Day on the 22nd of November.

There are 3 sessions:

Integrating systems in the age of Quarkus, Serverless and Kafka
Have you ever got the task to implement an exchange of data between two systems that were not designed to communicate with each other? We bet you have, and we dare to introduce a couple of tools and approaches making the task easier to accomplish. This talk will cover: Apache Camel, Quarkus dev mode and Knative First, we’ll speak about Apache Camel, the Swiss knife of integrating heterogeneous systems. It offers 300+ connectors out of the box, to transfer data to and from a wide variety of systems. The toolbox also brings options to route, filter and transform data based on the wildest requirements of a modern or legacy enterprise. Second, we will show what fun it is to write Camel integrations on top of Quarkus. You’ll learn about the famous Quarkus dev mode - the background compilation & live reload of the application while coding for faster dev cycles. Further, we’ll talk about dev services - an automatic provisioning of a required external service, such as Kafka broker or a database when testing or developing. Bonus: Quarkus applications start in milliseconds and consume just a few tens of megabytes of RAM. Third, we will explain how the outstanding integration capabilities of Apache Camel enrich serverless architectures based on Knative. We will touch topics like auto-scaling and scaling to zero, content based routing of cloud events, as well as streaming data between Apache Kafka and the 300+ kinds of systems supported by Apache Camel.

Developer joy with Quarkus
In this presentation we will introduce the main Quarkus features and dive into securing a Hibernate DB application with Keycloak OpenID Connect Provider using Quarkus devmode features such as continuous testing, live reload, and DevServices for DB and Keycloak, and making it work without having to read the OpenID Connect specification.

How OpenShift Cloud Services can accelerate your Kubernetes journey to the cloud
Kubernetes as a concept may sound simple, its implementation though its another story. DIY Kubernetes is a dangerous/painful sport that definitely is not tailored for every enterprise as the hassle is not aligned with the point where business value is produced. In this presentation I will speak about Kubernetes to Self Managed Openshift to Fully Managed Openshift , gradually showing the benefits that are gained and how this accelerates the path to the "sweet spot" which is the business value.
