I’ll be talking about our journey to using Kubernetes at Salesforce, in the World’s Largest Enterprise Cloud Infrastructure. Topics will include:

Our motivations for choosing Kubernetes, and how we built confidence in the technology, solution and approach. Our choice to build a lightweight abstraction atop Kubernetes artifacts, and lessons we’ve learned based on that. This includes our use of a fully declarative vs, API-driven deployment mechanism, which comes with pros and cons. Lessons learned from bringing up Kubernetes in bare metal environments. Securing communications between Kubernetes- and non-Kubernetes hosted workloads. General observations around how shifting to the Kubernetes world requires changes to host-centric tooling.
