Abstract of the talk…

AHOY is a release manager for Kubernetes, fully open source.

Bio…

I thought, this is easier explained, in, interpretive rap... Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity To fix everything that was ever broke In one deployment Would you rebuild it, or just let it fail? Yo His palms are sweaty, config weak, server load is heavy There's vomit on this keyboard already, Kubernetes He's nervous, but the control plane says Nodes are ready Fork Bomb, but he keeps on forgetting Commands he wrote down, to restart all the pods He opens up Wikis, but the page won't load out Server's chokin now, everybody's phoning now. Release window runs out, times up, over bloaw! Roll back to the previous, oh this is grievous Oh there goes docker, it's borked! He's mad cause K8 don't, downgrade that easily? No He won't have it, he knows, manual deploys back’s on the ropes It don’t’ matter He's dope, he knows that, but he broke He's whole Openstack So when he goes back to his mobile app,that's when it's Back to the Trello Board yo, this whole Agile thing sux He better go capture the screen logs next time using tmux You better lose yourself in this DevOps, the SecOps You own it, you better never let it go Ho! You only get one shot, do not miss your change to Window This opportunity comes once in a weeks time Yo! So that is what I do on a typical day.

For those who want the more traditional summary.... Open source consultant specializing in enterprise grade solutions based on open source software and open source integration. Worked with multiple DevOps teams inside numerous South Africa companies, to help bring these worlds together. Then watching the worlds explode. Sometimes for the good, sometimes for the bad. Currently a strong focus on Kubernetes. And then all the usual toppings, GitOps, CI/CD tooling, automation, test-driven infrastructure, and everything cloud native.

Key take-aways from the talk…

It automatically incorporates GitOps, auto-generation of Helm charts, all stored on Git.
