Best Practices for Secret Management with GitOps - Kara de la Marck, CloudBees

GitOps uses Git as the “single source of truth” for declarative infrastructure and enables developers to manage infrastructure with the same Git-based workflows they use to manage a codebase. Having all configuration files version-controlled by Git has many advantages, but best practices for securely managing secrets with GitOps remain contested. Join us in this presentation about GitOps and Secret Management. Attendees will learn about different approaches to secret management with GitOps, the issues involved, and the secret management solutions offered by various tools and platforms. We will discuss the pros and cons of Vault, SOPS, offerings by public cloud providers, and more.

Combining Progressive Delivery With GitOps And Continuous Delivery - Viktor Farcic, Shipa

Three phrases keep popping up when talking about modern workflows and development and deployment techniques. We have continuous delivery to automate the complete lifecycle of applications from a commit to a Git repository, all the way until a release is deployable to production. Then we have GitOps to define the desired states of our environments and let the machines handle the converge the actual into the desired state. Finally, there is a lot of focus on different deployment strategies grouped under progressive delivery. They are all focused on the iterative release of features to make the process safe, prevent downtime, and reduce the blast radius of potential issues. Through a hands-on demo, we will combine Argo CD as a tool of choice for applying GitOps, Argo Rollouts for progressive delivery, and a combination of Argo Events and Argo Workflows.

Executing Policies within CD Pipelines with OPA - AbdulBasit Kabir, Interswitch

It is common for organizations to have policies guiding their SDLC. Policies like who can deploy & approve, deployment windows, allowed artifact source, mandatory approval steps, and much more. These policies are most often hardcoded during tools setup or enforced through reliance on the goodwill people following "standard" practices. We all know that's not always the case. Policy engines like OPA (Open Policy Agent) help automate the enforcement of policies (defined as code). This talk covers some basics of OPA and policy enforcement within Continuous Delivery

GitOps for Great Apes: Policy, PaaS, or YOLO? - Rosalind Benoit, Themist

This talk takes a look at GitOps and Policy Automation through the lens of our cognitive roots. We'll look at software tool use and how it helps us scale the thinking processes we share with other tailless primates. We'll address what Policy solves for GitOps and whether or not our current implementation supports this. In the year of human-centered tech, we'll take a look at cognitive neuroscience, what it means to be a fundamentally human engineer, and how tools can adapt. Check out a demo of a new platform and understand why the problems it aims to solve, matter to your fellow humans.

GitOps: Yea or Nay? - Ricardo Castro, DefinedCrowd

GitOps is a paradigm or a set of practices that empowers developers to perform tasks that typically (only) fall under the purview of operations. It’s a way to do Kubernetes cluster management and application delivery by using Git as a single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and applications. Being Git at the center of delivery pipelines, engineers use familiar tools to make pull requests to accelerate and simplify both application deployments and operations tasks to Kubernetes. GitOps software agents (e.g. ArgoCD, Flux, and Jenkins X) can alert on any divergence between Git with what's running in a cluster, and if there's a difference, Kubernetes reconcilers automatically update or rollback the cluster depending on the case. This talk will include a demo of ArgoCD/Flux/Jenkins X on how to configure and use it to accelerate and simplify application deployments.

Improving Visibility and Traceability of Deployed Container Artifacts via Spinnaker’s BuildCi - Nima Kaviani & Manabu McCloskey, Amazon Web Services

As containerization becomes an integral part of deploying software reliably, traceability and visibility over what gets deployed becomes ever more important. Ideally, as part of the deployment process, release engineers would be able to track deployed containers back to the right version of the written code, investigate changes, and gain insight over the build process. While baking code into container artifacts has been a core part of Spinnaker, the introduction of CiBuild as a mechanism to increase insights into what gets built, is a new feature enabled in a collaboration between Netflix and AWS. In this talk, we will discuss architecture, implementation, and enablement of the new CiBuild plugin, and how it empowers the Spinnaker community to integrate their build systems, code repositories, and container registries into their Spinnaker deployments.

Level Unlocked: GitOps to the Edge and Infrastructure Provisioning - Katie Gamanji, The Linux Foundation

Within its 7 years of existence, Kubernetes has been the centerpiece of the cloud native landscape, elevating a pluggable system that led to the diversification of the technology ecosystem. As a result, multiple areas have developed in the industry, galvanizing solutions for components that introduce standardization, guidelines, and interoperability of the tools. To innovate the developer experience and delivery of the application, the community focused on restructuring and modernizing the CI/CD operations.

This talk will outline how cloud native GitOps tools, such as ArgoCD and Flux, unlock the zero-touch deployment of infrastructure and applications at the edge. Attendees will acquire an understanding of GitOps usage in association with ClusterAPI for infrastructure provisioning and KubeEdge for the service propagation to the edge.

Managing Storage via GitOps - Christian Hernandez, Red Hat

GitOps is a practice of DevOps teams that uses Git as a source of truth for their Kubernetes platform. Using GitOps, the entire system described declaratively, the canonical desired system state versioned in Git, and approved changes that can be automatically applied to the system. This gives you the advantage to quickly restore from a disaster. This is great for stateless applications. But what about your stateful applications? In this session Christian will take you though the challenges with managing storage in your GitOps workflows. In addition, Christian will go through some tips and tricks to help along your GitOps journey.

Moving Beyond CVEs: Why We Need a Strong Security Posture in Open Source? - Alice Chen, Armory & Beth Fuller, Themist

At last year's Spinnaker Summit, Beth shared the Security SIG's progress in implementing a Vulnerability Management Process for OSS Spinnaker, and the "why" behind it. Digging more into security has highlighted the importance of implementing and communicating intentional security practices in an OSS project. In this talk, we'll look beyond Spinnaker to explain why having a good security posture means a lot more than just CVEs. What does it look like to shift left in OSS? How does doing so make life easier for the Security Engineer persona? We'll make a case for codifying open source security processes through both automation and governance, and recommend an upstream CI experience to make projects safer and OSS users' lives easier.

ReleaseOps: GitOps for the People - Lian Li, Container Solutions

MoneyBank Inc. is a fintech enterprise that recently made the jump to K8s and GitOps to cope with the shift of demands from cranking out features towards stability and scalability. Yet, even with a fully automated CICD and shiny new microservices, features still take weeks to be released. As teams keep waiting on each other, frustrations, resentment, and mistrust grow.
MoneyBank’s situation is typical for organizations with enterprise processes and startup mindsets. When faced with problems, the urge is often to move fast and automate them away. However, the cultural and regulatory structures to support these changes are not in the scope of said automation. One more piece is missing to address the needs of non-technical stakeholders within the ever-changing CICD landscape.
In this talk, we will attempt to automate the non-automatable with ReleaseOps: GitOps for the people.

Self Healing GitOps: Continuous, Secure GitOps using Flux, Helm and OPA - Om Moolchandani, Accurics

Flux empowers the community to adopt GitOps for K8s without a separate CD tool. Flux triggers automated operations for cluster reconciliation by monitoring changes in git for images and artifacts such as Helm Charts. While Flux enables hyper automation for cluster deployment, how can teams ensure they aren't slowed down by requirements such as security, privacy and compliance? In this talk, Om Moolchandani will discuss how to leverage the power of the Open Policy Agent to automate delivery of secure, compliant deployments. Flux with OPA can ensure that any Helm charts and container images to be deployed, are compliant with the established policies. Om will also demonstrate a new approach of self healing GitOps to the community which leverages OPA's Rego language to remediate risks and violations on the fly.

The SAME Project: A GitOps Approach to Reproducible Machine Learning with Flux and Kubeflow - David Aronchick, Azure, Microsoft & Chanwit Kaewkasi, Weaveworks

We live in a time of both feast and famine in machine learning. Large orgs are publishing state-of-the-art models at an ever-increasing rate but data scientists face daunting challenges reproducing results themselves. Even in the best cases, where a newly forked code runs without syntax errors, this only solves a part of the problem as the pipelines used to run the models are often completely excluded. The Self-Assembling Machine Learning Environment (SAME) project is a new Kubernetes, Kubeflow and Flux project and community around a common goal: creating tooling that allows for quick ramp-up, seamless collaboration and efficient scaling - through the magic of GitOps. This talk will discuss our initial public release, done in collaboration with data scientists from across the spectrum, where we are going next and how people can use our learnings in their own practices.

6 Best Practices for Continuous Delivery Pipelines - Diego Lemos de Resende & Derik Evangelista, VMware

Pipelines are meant to be the road that will guide your team from code straight to production, automating everything on its way. Pipelines should be a source of joy for developers, the team's safe harbour. But the reality can be different, and many teams are struggling to get their pipelines right, spending time and energy fighting against automation instead of having their pipelines delivering value. In this talk, Diego and Derik will live code a Continuous Delivery pipeline from scratch, from commit to production, using Concourse. During the talk, we will make use of some CD best practices, and explain why you should adopt them in order to make your way to production more reliable and joyful.

A Vulnerable Tale about Burnout - Julia Simon, CloudOps

This vulnerable tale is a personal journey through the unpredictable world of depression and burnout. It could have been easily predicted because Julia was "doing it all". Yet it was totally unexpected because she assumed her mental health was strong and stable; she could handle anything. Until she couldn’t and everything became unbearable. She made the impossible and necessary decision to stop working in order to recover, setting out on what became four months of self-discovery. Julia will talk about what what led her to this state, what it looked like, and how she was able to get the necessary help to feel strong enough to not only go back to work, but to have the courage to shift career paths all together. This experience should serve as a space for open and authentic discussions to eliminate stigma around the topic of mental heath in the workplace and the tech industry.

Adding Ortelius for Microservice Tracking to your Jenkins Pipeline - Steve Taylor, DeployHub

As we move into microservices, we move away from a traditional check-out and build continuous integration process where an application binary is created and versioned. We are faced instead with managing independently deployed microservices across the dev, test and prod states, where the ‘link’ so to speak is done via APIs and runtime. In this session, we will cover how to include Ortelius for managing microservices in your Jenkins pipeline. We will cover the maintenance of a ‘logical application’ view and version, bill of material reporting, difference reports and a ‘blast radius’ report showing the impact a single microservice update could make to any single cluster. If you are organization is using Jenkins, this presentation will give you some ideas in how to easily pivot Jenkins to support a Cloud Native Environment.

Adoption of DevSecOps Practices in Regulated Industries - Gurpreet Sachdeva

Speakers: Gurpreet Sachdeva
Regulated industries like Aerospace and Automotive follow traditional development practices like V cycle with manual testing and low software reusability. Hardware dependencies and long support contracts have led to a huge legacy codebase with siloed software development teams. Regulated software requires compliance to safety standards like DO-178C, ED-12B, MISRA, ISO 26262, and security standards like DO-326A, ED-202A, SAE J3061, etc. While the DevSecOps emerged from Internet and software companies, it can be used in other industries. This session will cover how incorporating DevSecOps in regulated Industries can optimize software development and reduce security risks. Moreover, it reduces the time from code change to production deployment or release. Rigorous, automated security testing can also validate compliance requirements.

Apply Machine Learning to GitOps - Ip Sam & Wuxin Zheng, Red Hat
Speakers: Ip Sam, Wuxin Zeng
Machine learning involves in very aspect in life. Machine learning helps us make good decisions by learning from the existing data models and applying good predictions of the next output. How can we apply machine learning to GitOps so that we can improve the deployment accuracy and predict which deployments will likely to fail and need more attentions? Can we use machine learning to improve the deployment validation process? Can we use machine learning to improve the existing quality metrics and drive for better deployment results? If you are interested to learn more about how to apply machine learning to GitOps, please attend this meeting.

Are your CI/CD Pipelines Secure? - Angel Rivera, CircleCI
Speakers: Angel Rivera
Most CI/CD pipelines used by DevOps teams utilize integrations with services such as APIs, databases and other critical systems to complete their workflows. These integrations usually required the use of extremely sensitive secrets such as passwords, tokens or certificates and must be securely protected at all times. Unauthorized access of these pipeline secrets open these systems to threats from bad actors and illegal access of data. In this talk Angel will discuss common pain points in properly securing applications, CI/CD pipelines and protecting sensitive access gates to integration targets. Attendees will learn strategies to secure their applications, sensitive data and pipeline integration points. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to implement security layers that can improve their pipeline security posture.

Automating Security Compliance at Scale - Ravi Devineni, & Michael Pereira, Northwestern Mutual

According to Gartner, “99% of the vulnerabilities exploited by the end of 2021 will continue to be ones known by security and IT professionals at the time of the incident”. This means that most of the vulnerabilities that are exploited are completely preventable. For modern cloud and container-based workloads, Automation in the pipeline can help enforce security and compliance and protect against breaches. At Northwestern Mutual we take security seriously. We will show you how we automated all our security requirements and ensured all pipelines go through security scanning (including containers!), detecting secrets in real time as well as securing the pipeline itself. With a few simple techniques shown here, you can make your pipelines secure and compliant.

CI/CD as a Service: Moving Towards Scalable Continuous Delivery - Samed Guner & Abhinav Srivastava, SAP
Speakers: Samed Güner, Abhinav Srivastava
At SAP Artificial Intelligence we build and run large number of microservices from different teams across different time zones, different technologies and different hyperscalers. Given this diversity in people, time and technologies everyone starts to build their own CI/CD, infrastructure management, testing strategies and many more. This leads to repetitive work, unfilled security/product standards, high lead time, firefighting and a sleepless operations team. So what is the answer to all of these problems? As the central AI DevOps team we want to share our journey and experience in building a centrally governed CI/CD, one-click onboarding, infrastructure management, test strategy and delivery process. In particular how to use Jenkins pipelines at scale to support over 200 developers and how to streamline deployments using Spinnaker and ArgoCD while managing the infrastructure.

Continuously Delivered Documentation - Matthew Casperson, Octopus Deploy

To give our customers the easiest onboarding solution possible, we recently created a selection of 80 guides that documented the integration between 5 or so common technologies required to complete a deployment. This was great for customers, who could read documentation highly targeted to their own technology stack, but presented us with many problems. How could we know that our guides were accurate? How could we keep screenshots up to date? And how could we do all this without a huge team dedicated to continually manually reviewing each guide? By bringing common DevOps practices like automated tests, infrastructure as code, and continuous deployments, we have maintained 80 guides, hours of screencasts, and thousands of screenshots with a team of 2. Our process was documented at https://octopus.com/blog/devops-documentation, and the proposed session will discuss this journey.

Crowdsourcing Empathy: Humanizing an organization using Lean, Agile, and DevOps - Gautham Pallapa, VMware
Speakers: Gautham Pallapa
Making empathy part of an organization's culture has to be organic, and leadership cannot mandate empathy as a core tenet for the organization. I firmly believe that the best way to start the empathy engine within a workplace to crowdsource ideas that improved people's quality of life in the organization. In this session, I tell Project Athena's story, an initiative I spearheaded to improve empathy, leadership, collaboration, and sharing within an organization. I will share successes, failures, celebrations, and emotions that my teams and I experienced, phenomenal results that we were able to accomplish over a short period of time, and how we succeeded in making empathy a core tenet of our organizational culture through Lean, Agile, and DevOps. I dive into the need for psychological safety and how innovative and joyful work can be in a generative culture.

Destroying Non-Production - Saving 44% on Cloud - Shlomo Bielak, Benchmark Corp.
Speakers: Shlomo Bielak
The only reason non-production persists is due to ineffective SDLC/CICD processes. 44% of resources in a cloud are non-production systems. 76% of those workloads are idle because of release cadences and our fear of recreation. We have developed true Cloud Native CI/CD pipelines that make the SDLC so efficient that we add a new state to non-production, destruction. Collect your telemetry and metrics, shift security together, promote your code, & destroy those resources. Saving money and capacity for others (cloud & on-prem). We will demonstrate this using our advanced pipelines that delivers environments and applications together some marked for destruction. We call it On-Demand-Non-Production!

Dev Loves CI/CD: Efficient Sec and Ops Pipelines - Michael Friedrich, GitLab

Continuous integration and delivery/deployment helps speed up development and review workflows. Developers can focus on code reliably tested in different environments. At some point, the operations team gets paged on broken pipelines and jobs being stuck. On top, the security audit unveiled plain text secret exposure and dependency exploits. The next horror story: The software cannot be deployed anymore because package dependencies are broken. In this talk we hear stories on making CI/CD pipelines more reliable and secure. Automated deployments and package/container repositories can help avoid redundant cycles and extra work hours. Monitoring/observability combined with automation ensures to sleep in busy on-call times. Learn how Dev meets Sec and Ops in the pipelines and hear best practices on efficiency, iteration and insights.

DevOps Worked! ...But Why Hasn’t Security Kept Up? - Joni Klippert, StackHawk
Speakers: Joni Klippert
Over the past decade, DevOps solidified itself as the best-in-class way for engineering teams to build, deliver, and operate software. With this proven model, however, application security has not kept up. The current application security model is broken. While operations and QA were “shifting left,” embracing automation and dev-first tooling, application security stayed stagnant. Many application security teams today still rely on infrequent production-only scans, outdated tooling, and internal cultural processes that prevent scaling. Join StackHawk Founder & CEO Joni Klippert as she shares learnings from building DevOps products and where the future of AppSec is headed. Learn how engineering teams can take ownership of security, how security teams can build infrastructure for secure development, and how this can be automated in the pipeline.

Embrace ChatOps by Following the git-flow as Usual - Rick Zhao, Qingcloud
Speakers: Rick Zhao
Simplicity matters. It’s not desirable for us to invest in more systems or platforms. The best scenario is to keep our daily work unchanged. For example, software engineers usually spend a lot of time writing codes or documents and also have interactions with various pull requests. Lighthouse is similar to Prow, but it supports multiple git providers. We can speed up delivery no matter if you're using GitHub, Gitlab, or Gitea.

Encouraging Diversity and Inclusion in the Open Source Ecosystem - Zainab Abubakar, She Code Africa
Speakers: Zainab Abubakar
The term “Open” in Open Source should be fundamentally about access, empowerment and participation of all people. However, looking at the open source ecosystem today we can all agree that we are lagging behind in upholding this. In the past decade, representation of women in open source has inched up merely 1.5% to a shockingly low 3%. This result is a proof that open source communities need to make more intentional efforts to ensure a more diverse and inclusive community. In this talk, Zainab is going to be discussing on ways open source communities can actively and intentionally encourage diversity and inclusion within their communities.

Event-driven Distributed CI for 20000 Projects - Aleksandra Fedorova, Red Hat
Speakers: Aleksandra Fedorova
Linux distributions represent the ultimate challenge for continuous integration, because of the size and variety of the projects involved. For example Fedora Linux contains about 21 thousand independent components. These components can be stand-alone applications written in high-level languages or kernel modules which require a bare-metal hardware for testing. Rather than enforcing one specific implementation of the CI/CD infrastructure to be used across components, Fedora Gating framework allows to aggregate test results of arbitrary CI systems in a common database. The aggregated results are then processed by the decision engine, which ensures that the system-wide gating requirements are satisfied. In the talk the architecture of the framework and the role of the messaging in Fedora infrastructure will be described, covering both the benefits and the challenges of this approach.

Executing Policies within CD Pipelines with OPA - AbdulBasit Kabir, Interswitch

It is common for organizations to have policies guiding their SDLC. Policies like who can deploy & approve, deployment windows, allowed artifact source, mandatory approval steps, and much more. These policies are most often hardcoded during tools setup or enforced through reliance on the goodwill people following "standard" practices. We all know that's not always the case. Policy engines like OPA (Open Policy Agent) help automate the enforcement of policies (defined as code). This talk covers some basics of OPA and policy enforcement within Continuous Delivery

Gatekeeping and the DevOps Revolution - Kat Cosgrove, Independent

There are more computer science graduates than ever, and the number keeps rising. Include coding bootcamp graduates, and the number of junior engineers out there is staggering. Sounds great, right? More engineers means larger communities and more help for our projects, and the whole world benefits because we’re solving harder problems faster. That's what DevOps is about, yeah?

It’s not quite that simple. Tech is advancing quickly, becoming more and more specialized. We frequently assume that the people reading our documentation and using our tools already have context and peripheral knowledge specific to our corner of tech, and we forget about all of those junior engineers with fresh ideas who are hungry to learn but don’t understand our jargon. We don't mean to do it, but we're gatekeeping them and it's slowing our progress. In order to really accelerate DevOps adoption, WE need a cultural change, too.

Houston, We’ve Got a Problem! How to Debug your Pipeline in Tekton (in realtime) - Vibhav Bobade & Vincent Demeester, Red Hat

It’s always been nice to have CI/CD as a part of your infrastructure. Nothing better than being able to automate your workflows and have jobs done for you in a timely manner. It would be a shame if your jobs/pipelines break now would it. We have all been there. Only if we could debug our Pipelines in realtime :) As common as task debugging is in the programming world, in the CI/CD world, it is ridden with complexities of the infrastructure and reiterative approaches which kill time. With Tekton, it is possible to debug your pipelines on the go without stopping/restarting your PipelineRun. Tekton is a Kubernetes based, lightweight, serverless, and an easy to manage CI/CD solution which a user can use to create as well as debug their PipelineRuns at a Step level to understand what is wrong with their pipeline providing a more complete CI/CD solution.

How Jenkins X is Integrating Observability from the Inside, and the Benefits for its Users - Vincent Behar, Dailymotion

Speakers: Vincent Behar
In this session, we'll focus on observability for Jenkins X: what observability means for a Continuous Delivery platform such as Jenkins X, and why it's important.

We'll see how Jenkins X v3 is integrating observability from the inside, using standards such as OpenTelemetry, and packaging a full observability stack using Grafana - with Loki, Promtail, Tempo, and Prometheus.

And we'll highlight the benefits for the users:
- platform observability with alerting for all the Kubernetes components (Lighthouse, Tekton, Cert-Manager, ...)
- out-of-the-box dashboards for Continuous Delivery Indicators (Mean Lead Time, Time To Review, Release, and Deployment Frequency, ...)
- distributed traces for your pipelines

How To Automate Everything In 2021 - Viktor Farcic, Shipa

Automation of all the repeatable tasks is nothing new. We've been doing it for years or even decades. But the technology changes, so do the tools and the processes we use in automation. Today, we are practicing not only continuous delivery (CD), but also GitOps and progressive delivery. Our applications are running in Kubernetes and are designed around event-based decoupled architecture. So, how do we automate everything in 2021? Which practices should we use, and which tools should we choose? How can we combine events with workflows, pipelines, GitOps, and progressive delivery using tools designed from ground-up to be cloud-native and Kubernetes-first. We'll use Argo project (Events, Workflows & Pipelines, CD, and Rollouts) combined with SealedSecrets and Kaniko for the hands-on demo.

PLEASE NOTE: This talk has similar content to the GitOps talk titled Combining Progressive Delivery with GitOps and Continuous Delivery.

How to Scale Cloud Adoption whilst Building a World Class Developer Experience - Hibri Marzook & Ruchir Sanghavi, Contino
Speakers: Ruchir Sanghavi, Hibri Marzook
In 2021 the majority of organizations have built a cloud foundation of some sort (eg. Landing Zones, Scaffold) in order to securely consume Cloud at scale. However, the majority of said organizations find themselves crippled with the following challenges:
- Developers still find these environments unusable
- Cloud foundations do not evolve in line with the requirements of the development teams
- Old fashioned Centre of Excellence's have turned into the ivory towers of the cloud world.

In this talk, Hibri Marzook & Ruchir Sanghavi will explore how to build upon one's cloud foundations to put in a developer-centric engineering-based methodologies focusing on:
- World-class developer experience
- Building modern team topologies that don't hinder progress
- Engineering practices that are key to ensure long term cloud adoption

Speakers: Mihai Popa, George Proorocu
When we were almost done with the transformation from a traditional bank into a tech company, 2020 came, and we had to make some further adjustments due to the Corona outbreak. Our presentation will guide you through "how did it work out". We always base our talks on "Why" are we presenting this topic and on the key takeaways for the people attending. Why? In 2020 our Bank went through many challenges starting from an increase in cyber-attacks / scams to organizational and other corona-related problems. We believe that we have some valuable lessons learned that can be helpful to any Corporation, and not only during a global pandemic. Takeaways: 1.How did the large banks adapt to the Corona situation 2. What were the challenges in our organization and how we approached them 3. From a cybersecurity point of view, what changed in 2020 in the banking sector?

Immutable Deployments – the Goal of the GitOps Movement - Tracy Ragan, DeployHub

The GitOps movement has introduced a new model for supporting continuous deployments. At the core of GitOps is the process of creating immutable deployments that can be repeated without the potential interference of a human. In other words, a single source of truth that can be versioned over time to track configuration changes. In this session, we will explore the basic concepts of GitOps and discuss how the Ortelius open source project fits into this model to deliver a GitOps approach at scale.

Improving Visibility and Traceability of Deployed Container Artifacts via Spinnaker’s BuildCi - Nima Kaviani & Manabu McCloskey, Amazon Web Services

As containerization becomes an integral part of deploying software reliably, traceability and visibility over what gets deployed becomes ever more important. Ideally, as part of the deployment process, release engineers would be able to track deployed containers back to the right version of the written code, investigate changes, and gain insight over the build process. While baking code into container artifacts has been a core part of Spinnaker, the introduction of CiBuild as a mechanism to increase insights into what gets built, is a new feature enabled in a collaboration between Netflix and AWS. In this talk, we will discuss architecture, implementation, and enablement of the new CiBuild plugin, and how it empowers the Spinnaker community to integrate their build systems, code repositories, and container registries into their Spinnaker deployments.

Interoperability in Cloud Native Continuous Delivery - Dr. Michael Garbade, Education Ecosystem

Cloud native has become an important approach that enables organizations to increase the agility of applications and accelerate the transition of ideas into products for the end-users. In addition, the management of cloud-native applications through new paradigms such as continuous delivery has allowed organizations to venture into the market with their products much faster. In spite of these benefits, the cloud native and continuous delivery environments have some challenges, chief among them, interoperability. In this session, we shall discuss the lack of interoperability and the reasons it poses a challenge to achieve it. We shall use examples of common cloud native technologies and how the lack of common standards poses challenges in interoperability.

Introduction to Shipwright - Jason Hall, Red Hat

Shipwright (https://shipwright.io) is a framework for declaring and executing image builds. It boasts a pluggable architecture that allows for many common build strategies including CNCF Buildpacks, Kaniko, Buildah, s2i and others. Shipwright is built on Tekton, and adds a higher-level focus on simply building container images. So far it's mainly been developed in a partnership between Red Hat and IBM, but all contributions are welcome. This talk will introduce Shipwright, describe how it takes advantage of Tekton's platform, and demo how to use a built-in build strategy to deliver images using Buildpacks.

Is Continuous Delivery, a Chimera? - Olivier Vernin, CloudBees
Speakers: Olivier Vernin
The Jenkins project maintains a significant amount of services for its community. Since the beginning, those services have been transparently maintained by the community through Git repositories and we heavily rely on automation to ensure smooth collaboration with contributors around the globe. In this session, I'll talk about the challenges to operate an open infrastructure at scale. I'll review what went well in our continuous delivery journey and what didn't reach our expectations. I’ll present the processes and the tooling we put in place. As almost everything is public, the audience will be able to navigate through the Jenkins infrastructure project with the right mindset to understand how to use or not use the same path that we took.

It wasn’t DNS. We checked! Infra CICD with KubeVirt and Tekton - Cansu Kavili Oernek & Tyler Auerbeck, Red Hat
Speakers: Tyler Auerbeck, Cansu Kavili Oernek
You must have heard of this very famous haiku: It’s not DNS There is no way it’s DNS It was DNS Unfortunately, it was, cause we forgot about that change... We know that testing infra components can be hard. It's not cheap to have or maintain test environments or sometimes access to these systems is highly restricted. Also, we often don’t let our infrastructure codebase benefit from CICD practices as our app codebase does, even though it is getting more and more complex each day. But the good news is, with tools like KubeVirt and Tekton, we can rely on a common platform to test our infra-related deployments and changes (DNS, networking, ansible roles..) safely before pushing things straight to prod! And of course, that common platform is K8s! During this talk, we’ll cover how to orchestrate the testing and deployment of the changes safely on OpenShift by using Tekton and KubeVirt.

Jenkins Can Do It All - Jason Odoom, Clarity Innovations

There are many platforms and tools at our disposal as Engineers. However, sometimes the most popular tool isn't necessary depending on the size of an organization. What is most important are the concepts, techniques, and innovations that tool creates. With this idea in mind, we can explore these concepts in depth using Jenkins, an open source automation server that allow teams to deploy, test, and build code. But this is only a minor description of the power and efficiency Jenkins as a platform can provide. We will apply the latest CI/CD practices using Jenkins to prove that maybe you don't always need to use the latest industry darling to move quickly.

Kind Engineering: How To Engineer Kindness - Evan Smith, Solvemate
Speakers: Evan Smith
Software Engineering is an environment that is rife with worrying stereotypes like the "Brilliant Jerk" and the "Peter Principle". How do you be a kind engineer and encourage kindness in engineering? For the last couple years, I've been exploring what it means to be a Kind Engineer. It's called different things in different circles but ultimately it comes down to the fact that people who give more unconditionally make themselves happier, their teams happier and their companies happier. I'd like to share some practical tips on how people can become kinder engineers. This talk will cover code reviews, psychological safety, giving/receiving feedback and honesty in the workplace.

Life Beyond the Commit - Deepak Giridharagopal, Puppet

The rate of change in our apps and infrastructure has risen dramatically as we've gotten more sophisticated in how we build things. And oh how sophisticated we've become! We have infrastructure that's programmable and dynamic, that we can quickly tweak to meet our needs. And atop that, we've built elaborate applications that are distributed, containerized, and microservice-ified. CD and GitOps let us sustain this level of complexity without everything collapsing. We're now in an era where the plumbing is so advanced that the state and scale of our applications can change in the blink of an eye, faster than the speed of a git commit. Our tools must adapt, becoming much more event-oriented and responsive if we hope to keep things under control. This session will discuss self-healing systems, event-driven automation, and how we can apply CD principles to ongoing systems management.

Sponsored Lightning Talk: Compliance Operations (CompOps) with Armory Spinnaker in AWS - Thomas McGonagle, Armory

The role of Armory Spinnaker as the central CD orchestrator in AWS, positions it to play a significant role in the burgeoning AWS CompOps movement. Compliance is critical to many organizations and should be incorporated into their larger DevOps culture. Iron Mountain says, the benefits of developing a compliance driven culture is that the "compliance program can ultimately help you cut your operational costs, improve efficiencies and reduce risks. Once you've developed your plan, you can relax—at least a little—knowing that you're well set up to:" * Demonstrate your adherence to laws and regulations * Speed your response times when audits or litigation occur * Reduce the risk of fines and penalties * Improve your business efficiencies * Reduce your administrative costs * Get control over your critical records

Lightning Talk: How Using Screwdriver for CI/CD Reduced Vespa’s Time Spent on Builds and Pull Requests by 75% - Arnstein Ressem, Verizon Media
Speakers: Arnstein Ressem
When Vespa was open sourced in 2017 we looked for a continuous integration platform to build our source code on. We looked at several hosted solutions as well as Screwdriver – an open source CI/CD platform built by Yahoo/Verizon Media – that had just been open sourced in 2016. Another platform seemed the best fit for us at that point in time, but last year we became aware of big changes in the selected CI/CD platform. We decided to use the open sourced version of Screwdriver as we knew that the project had significantly matured over the past years. This presentation is an experience report on how we used Screwdriver to reduce the time spent on builds and pull requests by 75% on average.

Linking Events to Achieve Traceability and Data Aggregation in CI/CD Systems - Emil Bäckmark, Ericsson

The usage of immutable events notifying occurrences in CI/CD systems is increasing and we see standards like CloudEvents and event implementations in e.g. Tekton emerging. Events are useful for triggering and propagating information in these systems. To see the bigger picture, by aggregating data from several events, the receiver need to have some kind of context to see which events belong together. One way to create this context is by using event linking, where events reference other events. This will enable data aggregation, complex event triggering and traceability. Traceability is crucial when for example a bug or a security vulnerability is found in a deployment. When traced back to a bug in a library, we also need to trace forward to what deployments that library was part of. This is needed regardless of who developed the products and what tools where used.

Measuring DevOps with the Four Keys Project: How to Make it Work for your Organization - Dina Graves Portman, Google

Through six years of research, Google’s DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) team has identified four key metrics that indicate the performance of a software development team. The metrics not only give insight into DevOps performance, but the research indicates that these metrics are actually predictive of improved business outcomes, including profitability, productivity, and customer satisfaction. Google Cloud Platform has created an open source project to help automate the generation and collection of the metrics. However, not every organization has a workflow that will work perfectly out of the box with the Four Keys Project. This session will outline how to update the data definitions and extend the Four Keys Project to better reflect your operations.

Moving Beyond CVEs: Why We Need a Strong Security Posture in Open Source? - Alice Chen, Armory & Beth Fuller, Themist

At last year's Spinnaker Summit, Beth shared the Security SIG's progress in implementing a Vulnerability Management Process for OSS Spinnaker, and the "why" behind it. Digging more into security has highlighted the importance of implementing and communicating intentional security practices in an OSS project. In this talk, we'll look beyond Spinnaker to explain why having a good security posture means a lot more than just CVEs. What does it look like to shift left in OSS? How does doing so make life easier for the Security Engineer persona? We'll make a case for codifying open source security processes through both automation and governance, and recommend an upstream CI experience to make projects safer and OSS users' lives easier.

No K8s Expertise? No Problem. How to Use Open Source Ketch to Deploy Cloud Native Applications Without a K8s Skillset - Bruno Andrade, Shipa.io
Speakers: Bruno Andrade
Ketch is a new and fully open source project for deploying and managing cloud native applications on any Kubernetes cluster *without* writing YAML configuration files. While Kubernetes is now the gold standard orchestrator for containerized and microservices-based applications, operating it requires overcoming a steep learning curve. Traditionally, successful Kubernetes deployments require developers to become experts in Kubernetes concepts, objects, and YAML file writing and management. Open source Ketch eliminates this complexity by deploying applications directly to Kubernetes clusters – rendering YAML files unnecessary and flattening the learning curve for developers. Ketch enables developers to focus on writing code rather than on infrastructure, and to deploy and run applications on Kubernetes with no expertise necessary.

Speakers: Brittany Barnes, Dixsie Wolmers, Morgan Carroll
We are three IT professionals in the early stages of our careers working in diverse areas. Marketing, front end user experience design, and cognitive software. We were all intrigued by open source and joined a jump start program as mentees to learn more. This is our journey from knowing nothing at all about open source, to choosing open source projects that we felt we could learn from and bring value to, to how we are all now three successful open source committers. This led us wanting to share our stories, the good bits as well as the bad bits, the mistakes we made and the things we wish we could tell ourselves before we had started. Whether you're an experienced project lead wanting to attract more newbies like us, whether you're not sure how far out of your comfort zone to go dipping your toes into open source projects, come and hear our thoughts, feedback and ideas.

Pipeline Templating: Enabling DevSecOps Adoption Across the Enterprise - Steven Terrana, Booz Allen Hamilton

Within large organizations there exists a tension between the business's need to achieve economies of scale and the local development team's desire for the autonomy which enables innovation. Many organizations struggle at finding the balance between adopting standardized approaches to continuous delivery and expecting each team to be responsible for creating their own bespoke DevSecOps pipelines. In this talk, Steven will demonstrate how the Jenkins Templating Engine (JTE) turns this classic "either or" problem into a "both and". JTE empowers organizations to create truly tool-agnostic pipeline templates that can be shared across teams enabling effortless scale without sacrificing team's ability to innovate.

Putting Chaos into Continuous Delivery – Evaluate & Increase the Resilience of your Applications - Juergen Etzlstorfer, Dynatrace & Karthik Satchitanand, ChaosNative

Continuous Delivery practices have evolved significantly with the cloud-native paradigm. GitOps & Chaos Engineering are at the forefront of this new CD approach, with an ever-increasing pattern involving Git-backed pipeline definitions that implement “chaos stages” in pre-prod environments to gauge service-level objective (SLO) compliance. In this talk, Juergen Etzlstorfer (maintainer of Keptn CNCF project) and Karthik Satchitanand (maintainer of the LitmusChaos CNCF project) will discuss how you can construct pipelines that include chaos experimentation (using LitmusChaos) while simulating real-world load, and implement quality gates (based on SLOs) to ensure only resilient applications are deployed into production. They will also demonstrate how you can include chaos tests to your existing CD pipelines without the need of rewriting them.

Reducing Burnout with Continuous Remediation - Anton Weiss, Canarian
Speakers: Anton Weiss
Continuous Delivery and global spread are turning information systems into a beautiful messwork of partially degraded autonomous components. Incidents in such systems are abound and managing these incidents becomes an impossible task for mere humans. It sometimes feels like plugging holes in a cloud with your bare fingers in an attempt to stop the rain. In order to build the resilient systems of the future (and reduce the operators' burnout) we need smart continuous remediation. The talk will present some of the more interesting developments in this field across the industry.

Securing your Tekton Pipeline - Vincent Demeester & Ivan Font, Red Hat

Tekton is a cloud native CI/CD solution. There are many CI/CD solutions exist today and TektonCD intend is not to replace them but it's designed to offer a standard building block for such CD services on Kubernetes. It gives you granular control over your entire CI/CD pipeline. By using Kubernetes native CRDs one can define individually composable tasks that can be glued together to create and execute any modular CI/CD pipeline. But what are ways in which we can incorporate security throughout your CI/CD pipeline? Here we introduce tools built on Open Policy Agent to help you secure your CI/CD pipelines. In this talk we’ll provide an overview of Open Policy Agent along with projects like Gatekeeper (delivered as part of OpenShift) and Conftest, and demonstrate ways to incorporate them into any stage of your pipeline.

Spinnaker @ Cisco - Scaling To Support Large Diverse Applications - Anil Anaberumutt, Cisco & Balaji Sivasubramanian, OpsMX

Cisco adopted Spinnaker more than 2 years ago and has onboarded more than 1000+ applications. Cisco IT started off using Spinnaker for deploying primarily container-based applications to on-prem cloud platforms (OpenShift). As Cisco found success in Spinnaker, it is being rolled out to larger engineering teams (10,000+ developers). The Spinnaker team at Cisco has to evolve Spinnaker to support varied development requirements around multiple clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP), infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), helm based deployments, custom scripts as well as deploying to Snowflake (SaaS data warehouse), Teradata, and Informatica (Data Analytics platforms).
In this session, you will learn how Cisco evolved Spinnaker for these various applications at scale as well as best practices and lessons learned.

Sponsored Session: How to “SRE” your Way to Pipeline Improvement - Anders Wallgren, CloudBees

Oftentimes, IT professionals think auditability and observability are separate concepts, when in fact, they’re two sides of the same coin. It’s the review of what happened and why - just from different perspectives and moments in time. The point is, building an auditable pipeline should also result in building an observable pipeline.

Most IT pros, however, think about observability in regards to the observability of an operational system. But what if we considered the observability of an internal organizational system instead? For example, the CI cycle time of your pipeline.

To test this hypothesis, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) approaches can be applied to pinpoint what metrics we care about most and how to align context with desired outcomes.

During my talk, I will share how to place service level objectives (SLO’s), indicators (SLIs), and agreements (SLA’s) into different parts of your Software Delivery Lifecycle. You will learn how to make your pipeline metrics adjacent to auditability and observability standards as part of any continuous improvement process.

What Attendees Will Learn:
How to put SLIs, SLAs, and SLOs in place to align with key pipeline metrics
Examples of how to “SRE” your way to better cycle times (as an example)
How to avoid “metricing yourself to death" in the process

Supercharge Cloud Migration with Progressive Delivery - Rosemary Wang, Hashicorp

You’re ready to send some canary traffic to a newly refactored application in a new cloud provider while the former application resides in your current datacenter or cloud. However, you encounter a problem: you haven’t aggregated application metrics from both environments, and you’ll have to manually review a dashboard to determine whether or not to increase the percentage of canary traffic. Is there an automated way to do this? In this talk, Rosemary combines canary analysis with the powers of service mesh observability and traffic management to supercharge migrations in multiple environments with progressive delivery. She’ll demonstrate that setting up tools such as HashiCorp Consul, Prometheus, and Spinnaker can help scale the migration and support of refactored applications across multiple clouds or platforms while reducing their production risk.

Tame your Microservices with Ortelius - Juan Peredo, Bolbeck llc

You recently successfully migrated your applications to run using microservices. Since then, you have had to modify and upgrade multiple microservices in order to ship new features and fix issues. Then, one day as you upgrade one of the services, a number of your applications start to fail. After rolling back the change, you realize that you no longer know your microservices dependencies - development slows down to a crawl while you try to sort this out. In this talk we will explore how to use Ortelius to proactively ensure you have a clear picture of your microservices based applications' architecture. We will walk through a small micro services application to understand how to visualize, track and manage the dependencies for each one of your services. By the end of this talk you will know how to deploy new services' versions with confidence !

The Imperative to Stop Being Lazy and Do Better - Brendan O'Leary, GitLab
Speakers: Brendan O'Leary
There are a lot of challenging, unsolved problems in software. Building accessible, inclusive, smart software is a solved one...do better. My last name is valid. Despite what countless apps and websites have tried to tell me, it is reasonable to have an apostrophe in a name. I get it; SQL is hard. But it doesn't "solve" the problem to have validation, saying, "Please enter a valid last name." Talk about *invalidating* someone's experience in life. And that's not even that big of a deal. But this kind of carelessness is all too common in tech. Many other people's identities are marginalized even more severely when developers are careless. In this talk, we'll examine examples of each of these types of inclusion. We'll show how these issues have already been solved; it just requires the determination and compassion to choose to make our products more accessible and more inclusive.

Velocity or Governance: Why not both? - Fatih Degirmenci, Ericsson
Speakers: Fatih Degirmenci
CD enables organisations to produce high quality software more rapidly, enabling them to bring new services to market faster and be ahead of the competition. Teams frequently push their code which goes through CD pipelines, getting deployed to production. However, CD is not without its challenges and governance is one of them. Deploying changes to production without ensuring they adhere to rules, regulations, and laws could expose organisations and their users to issues with security, privacy, and compliance. Regardless of the size or the industry, Policy Driven CD is a critical topic that enables organisations to deliver software with speed by allowing enforcement of policies within their pipelines so security, regulatory, and compliance issues are identified and remedied earlier. This talk will introduce policy topic with examples from various industries such as telecom and finance.

Why Saying "CI/CD" is not Enough - Sriram Narayanan, ThoughtWorks
Speakers: Sriram Narayanan
"CI/CD" is becoming mainstream. Various departments are beginning to recognise that silos are harmful and are trying to collaborate. They bring in consultants who guide them on being Agile, set up Scrum teams, advice on CI/CD tools, help set up processes. Depending upon the sense of urgency, this becomes org-wide either from day one or from lessons learned from a pilot project. The measures of success aren't quite well understood and are interpreted and customised to whatever the implementation team feel they can manage to meet within their constraints. Worse, most teams as well as organisation management lack the exposure to know what questions to ask in order to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement. This talk explains why one sees delivery delays, defects in production, integration hell, security bottlenecks, etc having "CI/CD", and the corrective measures.

Keynote Session: The State of Continuous Delivery - Tracy Miranda, The Linux Foundation & Christie Wilson, Google

Continuous delivery is a software development practice in which teams release software changes to users safely, quickly and sustainably. Delivering new software features faster, while making sure services are solid and secure is a key differentiator for every organization today. As organizations grapple with continuous delivery adoption, they have to contend with the space going through a renaissance with the onset of microservices, containers and cloud-native technologies. In this keynote, Tracy Miranda and Christie Wilson take a look at the current state of continuous delivery, how it continues to evolve and how we can all work together in open source to drive its future.

Keynote Session: What it Takes to Achieve Production Excellence: A Fireside Chat - Charity Majors, Honeycomb.io & James Governor, RedMonk; Moderated by Tracy Miranda, The Linux Foundation

Many teams are burned out from spending too much time debugging and fixing production issues instead of shipping new features—and they risk falling behind competitors that ship faster and manage production better. James Governor (Redmonk co-founder) and Charity Majors (Honeycomb CTO and co-founder) will discuss what it takes to achieve production excellence and the best practices that lead to:

Fewer production issues
Faster release cycles
Less developer frustration and burnout
Happier customers
Better business outcomes

This session will help you adopt the production excellence mindset and come away with tactics around implementing modern software practices like progressive delivery, observability, and service-level objectives (SLOs).

Sponsored Keynote Session: Release Management in the Era of Progressive Delivery, Avantika Mathur, CloudBees

The concept of “progressive delivery” using feature flags has taken the world of software delivery by storm in recent years, but what does this mean for enterprise software development operations teams and how they should change their technology and practices? Like many things, the application of progressive delivery in the enterprise setting is much easier said than done with disparate technology and teams around the world.

This talk will cover the state of progressive delivery, the potential benefits and use cases unlocked by adding feature flags into the release management process, and technical considerations for creating CD pipeline integrity with shared feature flag management and control.

What Attendees Will Learn:
Why progressive delivery is the future of delivery at all companies
How continuous delivery is impacted by feature flags
A roadmap of key considerations for integrating feature management and continuous delivery tools and teams at the enterprise level

Sponsored Keynote Session: Slicing and Dicing: Building DevOps Word Salads - Jeremy Meiss, CircleCI

While it seems that every week new terms appear to describe DevOps tools, segments, ideas, practices, etc., are they really new? CI/CD, Progressive Delivery, AIOps, GitOps, TreeOps (not real, but who knows, maybe it will be next week?) - are they all the same, or are they just reimagining last week’s buzz words? In this talk we will break down a few of these terms, what they mean, how they’re used, and why they may matter for you and your teams.
