Vilnius DevOps Meetup #10

2019 Autumn Vilnius DevOps Meetup #10 is coming! Get ready to enjoy quality time with fellow DevOps practitioners during a fully packed lineup:

Saulius Valatka (Tech Lead @ Adform) - Modern Linux Observability

The Linux kernel has recently steadily been acquiring more and more sophisticated performance troubleshooting tools, such as perf, tracepoints, and most recently eBPF with tools like bcc and bpftrace making their usage easier than ever before.

This talk will be a gentle introduction to these technologies and tools, with some practical examples of their use in real-life situations.

Elton Stoneman (Architect @ Docker) - Just what is a "service mesh", and if I get one will it make everything OK?

Communication is the backbone of distributed applications. Imagine you could control that backbone independently of all the components, so your application code just makes simple calls to other services, and your communication backbone does all the complex non-functional work. Load balancing, traffic management, fault tolerance, end-to-end monitoring, dynamic routing and secure communication could all be applied and controlled centrally. That's a service mesh.

In this session I'll cover the major features of a service mesh using Istio - which is the most popular technology in this space. I'll show you what you can do with a service mesh, how it simplifies application design and also where it adds complexity.

Tom Harvey (Engineer @ HashiCorp) - Building a Terraform Provider

Terraform allows you to provision just about any infrastructure on any provider - but how does it do that?

In this talk Tom will show how a Terraform Provider provisions and tracks changes across different clouds and services and how you could write a Provider to support just about anything.

One lucky attendee (must reserve and attend) will win 2-days ticket to DevOps Pro 2020 in Vilnius!
