Modernizing Network Automation: Embracing Cloud-Native Excellence for Scalable Automation Platforms - Diana Appanna & Srivatsa Srinivasa, Nokia

Thursday December 12, 2024 11:30am - 12:05pm IST

Room 2

Traditionally, Network Management System (NMS) are very important and complex systems designed to help network operators from large service providers to small enterprises handling new service deployment, device lifecycle management, and fault management. However, their monolithic architecture combined all functions into one system, causing scalability issues and inefficiencies. The siloed design also impeded network management by isolating functions and restricting real-time monitoring. To address these constraints, we transitioned to a cloud-native architecture. We leveraged a comprehensive suite of open-source and CNCF technologies, including service mesh (Istio), container orchestration (Kubernetes), observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenSearch, Fluent Bit), and ingress gateway solutions (MetalLB, NGINX). This transformation resolved legacy issues while future-proofing our customers' networks, ensuring they stay agile, efficient, and prepared for future challenges.

A Debugging Journey from Coredns to Coreutils - Akhil Mohan & Humble Devassy Chirammal, VMware by Broadcom

Thursday December 12, 2024 11:30am - 12:05pm IST

Room 4

It all started when CoreDNS pods entered a crash loop backoff state soon after the cluster was deployed. The only change was an unprivileged execution desired in the latest coreDNS image. The issue occurred only in worker nodes, not in control plane nodes, and refreshing the image by deleting and pulling it again resolved the issue. It happened in one OS distribution flavor but not in another. We investigated Docker build, setcap, and libc, and found that the required capability was missing in nodes during the issue. The stack was complex, involving FIPS/CGO, build system, runtime configuration, and binary packaging in OVA. Debugging included CoreDNS binary, containerd, runc, SELinux, AppArmor, Photon OS, and the kernel... lots of learning which could be useful for many developers/admins or cluster operators to debug unprivileged pod execution. Finally, we discovered something interesting in the bootstrapping scripts. Let's debug.

Dynamic Management of X509 Certificates Using Kubernetes Certificate Operator - Abhidnya Joshi & Senthil Ponnuswamy, Dell Technologies

Thursday December 12, 2024 2:55pm - 3:30pm IST

Room 3

Security is non-negotiable area and Kubernetes based environments are no exception! Usage of x509 certificates is the key thing. Be it K8s deployments in private or public cloud, ensuring availability of "right" X509 certificate for a service is very important. If this service is getting connected from external (apps/clients which are outside of K8s cluster) clients, this is even more important! But what is really the "right" x509 certificate and how can we ensure that is always remains "right"? Can we make corrections dynamically? Can we also ensure easy propagation of certificates imported from outside the cluster? Propagation of Certificate revocation lists to ensure services can deny revoked certificates? This talk helps describe the strategy K8s based products can use to dynamically generate, make correction and propagation of X509 certificates within K8s cluster using K8s operator design pattern and makes use of well-known CNCF projects such as cert-manager and trust-manager.

Scaling Beyond Autoscaling: How We Grew Our Kubernetes Clusters - Bhavin Gandhi & Ruturaj Kadikar, InfraCloud Technologies

Thursday December 12, 2024 4:50pm - 5:25pm IST

Room 4

Picture this: Your startup just landed a big client, and as your business starts to grow, so does your Kubernetes cluster. The number of microservices and the traffic that they serve has started increasing. You configure auto-scaling of Nodes and Pods. Do you think that is enough, or do you need to look into other areas? What other components need scaling? What strategies should be devised? How do we verify whether there will not be any impact during scaling? In this session, we answer all these questions and come up with a blueprint for scaling a Kubernetes cluster from our experience with scaling our production cluster from merely 20-25 nodes to around 250 nodes with more than 5000 pods. We will touch base on the issues we faced and their resolution that will form a good prescription for those who want to scale their Kubernetes infrastructure.

Ensuring Reliability of Production Ready Kubernetes Operators Using Envtest - Aniruddha Basak, Syself GmbH & Richard Case, Stealth Startup

Thursday December 12, 2024 5:40pm - 6:15pm IST

Room 5

We need to keep in mind many principles & techniques while writing a Kubernetes operator and especially so when used in production. Projects like kubebuilder go a long way to help in building operators. However, talks focus on how to write operators. But in this talk, you will learn how testing can help you create Kubernetes operators that are reliable and resilient to failure and give you the confidence to deploy them to production clusters. Often writing unit tests is not enough for an operator that manages infrastructure. Introducing e2e tests will help, but writing and running e2e tests are time-consuming. This session will share how a user can use envtest to simulate an environment very similar to a real environment and run the tests on behalf of that. In addition, you’ll learn what to keep in mind while writing the tests, such as it doesn’t support garbage collection, and a user must be very careful while creating objects and deleting them after a test suite is done.
