KubeCon | CloudNativeCon - Virtual - Europe 2020
In August 2020, I participated at the first virtual KubeCon | CloudNativeCon. My main focus was on security and software architecture.
I heard interesting talks about security screening on container and cluster level, cluster conformance testing and how to force security policies via kubernets built-in features and webhooks.
Regarding system architecture, I learned a lot about how to use operators and CRDs to automate setup of commonly used components and infrastructure.
