Installing Kubernetes is easy. Ensuring it complies with your organization’s enterprise governance and security requirements isn’t and requires a technology plan. In this technically-focused talk, Oleg will summarize common prerequisites for running Kubernetes in production, and how to leverage fine-grained controls and separation of responsibilities to meet enterprise governance and security needs. He will discuss basic requirements for audit, security, authentication, authorization, integration with existing identity broker, logging, and monitoring.Since on premise Kubernetes deployments have their challenges, Oleg will cover the limitations of a bare-metal installation, interactions with vSphere’s API, achieving HA, reliability and disaster recovery, as well as handling OS upgrades, security patches, and Kubernetes upgrades. The session will conclude with a quick outlook of what’s next, including infrastructure as a code, immutable infrastructure, and GitOps.
