Description

Case Study Conrad Electronic – From a Static Infrastructure to Continuous Delivery and the Cloud in One Step [B] - Tobias Baumgart, Conrad Electronic & Sebastian Scheele, Loodse

For many years, the absence of scalable QA environments has been a bottleneck within the development flow at Conrad Electronic – with major impact on overall speed and efficiency of the production lifecycle. To increase flexibility and scalability, Conrad Electronic decided to move from a static infrastructure to a dynamic scaling based on Google Cloud and Kubernetes. In this case study, Tobias Baumgart and Sebastian Scheele will show how the new cloud native infrastructure and Continuous Delivery is being implemented, what major challenges have been met throughout the process, how they have been solved, and how the new cloud set-up looks like.
