KASPER NISSEN

BIO
Kasper holds a Master degree in Computer Technology and worked as an DevOps & Infrastructure Consultant at LEGO prior to working at Lunar Way. Kasper wrote his master thesis, “KubeCloud - A Small Scale Cloud Computing Environment”, on how Universities could leverage small-scale cloud environments built out of Raspberry Pis. Kasper and his fellow master thesis partner wrote about this on kubecloud.io and are still actively blogging about Cloud Native technologies. Kasper is the founder of the “Cloud Native Aarhus” meetup group along with the danish Slack Community “Cloud Native DK”. https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaspernissen/

ABSTRACT
"A tale of 1,5 years with Cloud Native technologies at Lunar Way"

Cloud Native technology has been used as a differentiator when challenging the established. Infrastructure technologies such as Kubernetes let us move fast. In this talk, Kasper will present the tale of how we built our infrastructure and how it’s been like running Kubernetes in production for 1,5 years. This also includes touching upon key infrastructure components, like Prometheus, fluentd, and Humio.

THOMAS BØGH FANGEL

BIO
Thomas holds a Master degree in mathematics and has been working in IT industry for 10+ years implementing distributed systems in Java, Scala, Node and Go. Thomas has been working at Lunar Way since June 2016. Thomas enjoys sharing his and Lunar Way’s experiences being a frontrunner adopting Cloud Native technologies and microservices. https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasboeghfangel//

ABSTRACT
"Cloud Native Transformation: from monolith to microservices"

Back in 2016, Lunar Way went live on a monolithic backend implemented in Rails. Shortly after, a decision was made to break up the monolith and implement a microservice architecture. 2 years later we have come a long way with 40+ microservices running in production in an architecture using asynchronous message passing as a first principle for inter service communication. In this talk Thomas will talk about the transformation, the lessons learned so far and also look ahead towards the planned changes in the platform.
