Talk: Building and managing application platforms with Azure Kubernetes Service

The Kubernetes landscape is maturing and the managed offerings from cloud providers have come a long way, providing a more streamlined cluster operations experience. But we still need to make architectural decisions, set up automation, governance, and most importantly, secure it. Even when the surrounding cloud platform is set up, we still need to tune internal Kubernetes resources to make sure that both Dev and Ops have the best possible user experience, helping people work together without rigid processes that slow progression. In this session, we explore how to create highly available application platforms built with Azure services by using Terraform for infrastructure, Flux for true GitOps application delivery, all tied together using other CNCF backed projects and GitHub.
