Kubernetes Migrations & Data Gravity – Best Strategies from Cloud to Cloud
Engineers have long believed that managed Kubernetes services in the cloud would liberate them from vendor lock-in, but the reality is far from it. Most container platforms are not feature-complete, they leave a trail of external concerns unaddressed! Join us on a journey as we take a demo application from AWS to GCP and expose the hidden pitfalls that await Kubernetes app portability. We’ll distill essential software development and system architecture best practices to help your future-proof your Kube applications, focusing on an optimized storage layer (OSS!) that allows your data to roam free across cloud providers without getting stuck in vendor-specific quicksand. Additionally, we’ll reveal configuration and components within the Kubernetes ecosystem that can be leveraged to bypass some platform lock-in constraints. Don’t get caught off guard – learn how to safeguard your app’s portability today!
