Previewing the Storage Developer Conference EMEA in 2020
August 20, 2019
Alex McDonald, NetApp; Paul Talbut, SNIA
This session will offer a preview of what is planned for the 2020 agenda ahead of the call for presentations and will also give potential sponsors the information they need to be able to budget for their participation in the event. If you have attended previously as a delegate, this is a great opportunity to learn more about how you can raise your profile as a speaker or get your company involved as a sponsor. There will be time allocated during the webcast to ask questions about the options available. Companies with storage development teams will learn why this conference is valuable to the local technical community and why they should be directly engaged.
Kubernetes in the Cloud (Part 3): Stateful Workloads
August 20, 2019
Ingo Fuchs, NetApp; Paul Burt, NetApp; Mike Jochimsen, Kaminario
Kubernetes is great for running stateless workloads, like web servers. It’ll run health checks, restart containers when they crash, and do all sorts of other wonderful things. So, what about stateful workloads?
This webcast will take a look at when it’s appropriate to run a stateful workload in cluster, or out. We’ll discuss the best options for running a workload like a database on the cloud, or in the cluster, and what’s needed to set that up.
We’ll cover:
- Secrets management
- Running a database on a VM and connecting it to Kubernetes as a service
- Running a database in Kubernetes using a `stateful set`
- Running a database in Kubernetes using an Operator
- Running a database on a cloud managed service
This webcast is part of a Kubernetes in the Cloud series. Watch Kubernertes in the Cloud (Part 1) and Kubernetes in the Cloud (Part 2) on-demand at your convenience.
