Call for round the year submissions for Rootconf in 2020

I’ll talk about how we built and now run karix.io using docker containers. It covers the entire engineering effort undertaken and how and why we got here based on past learning and experiences.

It is my journey from a docker-compose PoC to kubernetes in production with the primary goal of improving developer/ops productivity.

I’ll go in-depth about how we created our deployment pipeline using jenkins and how we use helm for packaging kubernetes components. I’ll also touch on the important aspects of testing, deployment tooling and capacity planning that are needed to run kubernetes in production.
