Keynote: Who Owns Your Pod? Observing and Blocking Unwanted Behavior at eBay With eBPF - Jianlin Lv, eBay & Liyi Huang, Isovalent at Cisco
Wednesday June 11, 2025 09:36 - 09:46 HKT
Level 16 | Grand Ballroom I
Kubernetes admins often struggle to understand pod activities, both for regular pods and those with various privileges. This session explores two use cases that highlight why Tetragon, an eBPF-based observability and enforcement tool, for pod security:
1.Replacing Auditbeat with Tetragon: Learn how Auditbeat rules mapped to Tetragon tracing policies, identifying functionality gaps, and how eBay contributed back to the community
2.Auditing Container Process Permissions: See how Tetragon helped analyze pod behavior and determine if applications could migrate to more restrictive pod security policies, ensuring adherence to the principle of least privilege
We also cover deployment challenges, such as integrating with SIEM platforms, resource utilization, and implementing runtime enforcement for unwanted pod behavior. This talk provides practical insights into using Tetragon for observability, policy refinement, and improving overall pod security posture in Kubernetes environments.

Unified Observability in GRPC: Metrics and Tracing Using OpenTelemetry Plugin - Purnesh Dixit, Google
Wednesday June 11, 2025 11:00 - 11:30 HKT
Level 16 | Grand Ballroom I
gRPC’s performance advantages hinge on minimizing latency, but its binary protocol and streaming capabilities make debugging and monitoring inherently opaque. While distributed tracing identifies bottlenecks, metrics like error rates and throughput are critical for holistic insights. Yet, manual instrumentation for these signals in gRPC is complex, error-prone, and lacks standardization.

In this talk, Purnesh Dixit from the gRPC team unveils the new OpenTelemetry plugin for gRPC, developed by the gRPC team at Google, which provides unified metrics and tracing out-of-the-box to monitor retries, diagnose streaming bottlenecks, and optimize performance without invasive code changes.
1) Client-per-call: Track overall RPC lifecycle (e.g., grpc.client.call.duration).

2) Client-per-call-attempt: Analyze individual retries/hedges (e.g., grpc.client.attempt.duration).

3) Server-instruments: Measure concurrency, request queuing, and stream lifetimes (e.g., grpc.server.call.started).

Progressive Delivery Made Easy With Argo Rollouts - Kevin Dubois, Red Hat
Wednesday June 11, 2025 13:45 - 14:15 HKT
Level 19 | Crystal Court I
ou might already be using a CI/CD solution, but are you 100% sure things will roll out without a glitch once you go to production?  Unfortunately differences between testing/staging and production environments are virtually unavoidable. There’s always a risk for unforeseen issues related to your production environment and/or actual load which can lead to potential disruptions to your users.

Progressive delivery is the next step after Continuous Delivery to roll out your application in a controlled and automated way so you can verify and test your application *in production* before it becomes fully available to all your user bases.

Embrace GitOps and Progressive Delivery with techniques like blue-green, canary release, shadowing traffic, dark launches and automatic metrics-based rollouts to validate the application in production using Kubernetes and tools like Istio, Prometheus, ArgoCD, and Argo Rollouts.

Come to this session to learn about Progressive Delivery in action using Kubernetes.

Connecting Dots: Unified Hybrid Multi-Cluster Auth Experience With SPIFFE and Cluster Inventory API - Chen Yu, Microsoft & Jian Zhu, Red Hat
Wednesday June 11, 2025 13:45 - 14:15 HKT
Level 16 | Grand Ballroom I
As the multi-cluster pattern continues to evolve, managing K8s identities, credentials, and permissions for teams and multi-cluster apps, such as Argo and Kueue, has become a hassle, typically involving managing individual service accounts on each cluster and passing credentials around. Such setup is often scattered, repetitive, difficult to track/audit, and may impose security and ops complications. This is especially true with hybrid environments, where different solutions could be in play across platforms.

This demo presents a solution based on OpenID, SPIFFE/SPIRE, and Cluster Inventory API from the Multi-Cluster SIG that provides a unified, seamless, and secure auth experience. Facilitated by CNCF multi-cluster projects, OCM and KubeFleet, attendees could be inspired to leverage open source solutions to eliminate credential sprawl, reduce operational complexity, and enhance security in hybrid cloud environments, when setting up teams/applications to access a multi-cluster setup.

Wednesday June 11, 2025 14:30 - 15:00 HKT
Level 19 | Crystal Court I
Do you think platform engineering is too hard? Or is it just a buzzword? Is the CNCF landscape too tricky to visualize? If you’ve been in this industry long enough, you should know that platform engineering has been around for a long time.

Most of us have been trying to build developer platforms for decades, and most of us have failed at that. That begs the questions: “What is different now?” “Why will this time be different?” and “Do we have a chance to succeed?”

We’ll take a look at the past, the present, and the future of platform engineering. We’ll see what we were doing in the past, what we did wrong, and why we failed. Further on, we’ll see what we (the industry as a whole) are doing now and, more importantly, where we might go from here.

Get ready for the hard truths and challenges you will face when trying to build a platform based on Kubernetes. Join us for a pain-infused journey filled with challenges teams will face when building platforms to enable other teams.
