Abstracts

Talk One: Multi-tenancy in Kubernetes with VCluster and kubespaces.io
Multi-tenancy is hard and requires a strong understanding of roles, identities and a clear security boundary between workloads and namespaces. This talk demonstrate how to achieve better isolation, while still empowering development teams with virtual clusters and Gateway API, allowing for seamless scaling and integration into the software lifecycle.

Talk Two: Open Telemetry: Why Context Matters
OpenTelemetry has revolutionized the observability landscape by providing a standardized, vendor-neutral approach to collecting telemetry data. This has effectively solved the challenge of data acquisition, but it’s only the first step. The true power of observability lies in the ability to contextualize and correlate this data, moving beyond disparate silos and point solutions. This talk will delve into the limitations of fragmented observability approaches and explore how a unified platform that leverages OpenTelemetry can unlock deeper insights, streamline troubleshooting, and empower engineers to make data-driven decisions. We’ll discuss the importance of context, correlation, and visualization in transforming raw telemetry data into actionable intelligence, ultimately driving improved system performance and reliability.
