DUG: Lando, docker and kubernetes

Session 1: Containerizing your Drupal site on Kubernetes and deploying it the blue/green way - Nils Peeters

During this talk, we'll be going over on how you can update your Drupal code on Kubernetes using blue-green deployments.
First off, we'll go into what "blue/green deployments" actually are and how we can realize this easier than ever using the power of containers.
Furthermore, deploying blue/green has many advantages, like deploying with barely (if any) downtime, but also a couple of disadvantages and pitfalls.
We will cover all this good stuff by going over our story so far of becoming a dedicated hosting company with a starting focus on Drupal.
I'll talk about the dangers and issues we faced while deploying normally on our old infrastructure and how we tackled these in our new environment on Kubernetes.

Session 2: Setting up a no-ops project using lando, gitlab and platform.sh. - Levi Govaerts

At the beginning of a project; do you still spend hours in order to get your DevOps flow ready? It's time for a change.

During this session I will cover following topics:

• Tell you more about Lando: how it works and why it's cool
• Explain GitLab pipelines and why you should make use of them
• How you can easily spin up extra environments
• Improving the quality of your project

If you are not using GitLab or Platform.sh, this will still be interesting as these are just example services.
