As the number of clusters under management increase, application owners and cluster operators need a programatic way to manage deploying to their clusters. Rancher Continuous Delivery allows an administrator to create groups of clusters and link them to Git repositories. This means an application owner only ever needs access to the Git repository and not the management cluster. Deployment manifests can be defined in Helm, Kustomize or K8s yaml files and can be tailored based on attributes of the target clusters.

If you haven't heard, Rancher's K3s was accepted last month as a Sandbox Project by the CNCF! Exciting things have been underway with K3s and in this September's meetup we will bring you up to speed on all of them. We’ll discuss the donation of K3s to the CNCF and talk about the changes you can expect to see as part of this move. Rancher experts will also cover the features and enhancements available in the 1.19 release. The focus of the 1.19 release has been improved configurability and operations for K3s clusters.

We'll be delving into Machine Learning and Open Policy Agent on Kubernetes. Plus you'll have the chance to ask any questions live!
