#038 - Kubernetes Supercharging Particle Physics with Ricardo Rocha (CERN)
Ricardo from CERN, who leads the platform infrastructure teams, discusses CERN's significant role in particle physics research with the Large Hadron Collider. The conversation covers how CERN manages the massive amounts of data generated from experiments using a worldwide computing grid. Ricardo shares CERN's journey with adopting Kubernetes for various applications, including critical systems controlling detectors and accelerators. He also touches upon CERN's involvement with the CNCF and the Kubernetes community.
SUSE Rancher Prime Meets Cluster API: What You Need to Know
Kubernetes has revolutionized how we deploy and manage applications, but juggling clusters across clouds and on-premises environments can quickly become a tangled mess. Different tools, inconsistent configurations and manual processes drain your team’s time and energy. What if there was a way to simplify Kubernetes cluster management, bringing order to the chaos? Enter Cluster API (CAPI) and SUSE Rancher Prime.
Tech Debt as Innovation? How Netflix Turns It Into Opportunity
At Civo Navigate San Francisco 2025, Lisa Smith, from Netflix shares a fresh perspective on how tech debt can drive innovation instead of slowing teams down. Learn how to staff legacy systems, handle tricky deprecations, and evaluate the “tech debtiness” of your infrastructure to unlock growth and efficiency. Discover how to turn tech debt into a strategic advantage for your engineering team.
Federation Done Right: Cycle's LowOps Approach
Federation allows for distributing control and services across not just multiple regions, but multiple providers and environments as well. This is a critical capability for today's multi-cloud and bare metal deployments, and the idea has gained momentum for several practical reasons such as compliance, resilience, and latency. Now, more than ever, teams are expected to support multi-cloud deployments, navigate regional compliance requirements, and deliver those low latency experiences to users globally.
Observability Reimagined: How AI is Transforming Monitoring
Observability needs to evolve. With AI reshaping IT monitoring, how can businesses leverage predictive analysis, AI-driven monitoring, and auto-remediation workflows to create more resilient infrastructures? At Civo Navigate San Francisco 2025, Jemiah Sius, New Relic, explores how AI is transforming observability, shifting from reactive responses to proactive, intelligent solutions.
The latest in Kubernetes Monitoring: new features to track persistent storage, simplify alerting, and more
