VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Hands-on-Workshop
18 January 2023
08:30 – 14:00 CET
Nürnberg
Event Intro
Digital transformation is fuelling the adoption of Kubernetes, which is being used across all industries today to help automate the deployment, management, and scaling of containerised applications. Enterprises are choosing Kubernetes and moving to a multi-cloud environment for a variety of reasons such as avoiding vendor lock-in, minimising risk and reducing cost. To meet the exact needs of development teams, multiple clouds are needed.
With this multi-cloud reality, building, operating, and managing a Kubernetes-based container infrastructure has become even more challenging. How can you ensure increased operational efficiency, enhanced infrastructure and workload security, and expedite the move to multi-cloud and hybrid cloud?
This VMware Tanzu Kubernetes event is a 2.5 hour hands-on-workshop focused on demonstrating the value of standardising on a Kubernetes platform to manage, monitor, and secure your containers across any cloud and any cluster.
During this workshop we will deep dive into the business value surrounding:
- Consistent Kubernetes runtime
- Multi-cloud Kubernetes management plane
- Platform-wide observability
- Zero-trust data encryption and mTLS
- Enterprise-grade integrated LB/Ingress
- Platform installation and enablement
Pre-requisites: The workshop will utilise VMware Cloud Services (via Customer Connect) and VMware Pathfinder.
