Hello Los Angeles Kubernauts!

Please join us next next week as we get together for one last round of Kubernetes goodness before 2019 ends.

Steven Wong is going to present “Plan to Fail - A Good Captain Doesn’t Sail Without Life Rafts”. This presentation will highlight the importance of having a disaster recovery plan. The three areas of focus are:

* Items that need to be backed up and why - some might surprise you!
* Why you need selective restore capability.
* Existing tooling that can simplify and automate a DR strategy.

For the second presentation Nicholas Robinson-Wall will talk about "Building a Bank Around Kubernetes." Monzo has built a bank from scratch that serves 3.5 million customers, with 99.87% of its software scheduled by Kubernetes. Nick will talk about how Monzo has done this, and how Kubernetes supports its 1500 constituent microservices. This will be a great opportunity to talk with a team that has experience dealing with the challenges of running Kubernetes securely and at scale.

SPONSORED: A big thank you to the great team at Replicated for hosting the group this month! We also appreciate the ongoing support from NetApp.
