==== 📓 Agenda📓 =====
6:30 - 7:00pm: Arrival, Food & Refreshments
7:00pm: Talks Start
🗣⚡Subomi Oluwalana - Build Backwards-Compatible REST APIs with Rolling Versions
Rolling Versions is an API Versioning Strategy invented by Stripe for REST APIs. We needed this for Convoy, so I made an implementation for Golang, and in this talk, I will talk about the versioning strategy and the Golang library implementation.
🗣 Aris Boutselis - Triaging Kubernetes clusters with K8sGPT
I am excited to present K8sGPT as a tool to facilitate triage and debugging of K8s clusters while showing how AI can help with K8s operations.
☕ Break 🥐
🗣 Manuel de la Peña - Delightful integration tests with Testcontainers for Go
Dockerized services are an excellent tool for creating repeatable, isolated environments ideal for integration tests. In this session, we’ll look at the Testcontainers libraries which provide flexible and intuitive API for programmatically controlling lifecycle of your service dependencies in Docker containers.
You’ll learn everything necessary to start adding powerful integration tests to your codebase without the headache of managing external service dependencies manually!
~8:30 - 9:00pm: Closing and Head to the Pub
