Plone on Kubernetes

Recently, some progress has been made on having Plone running on Kubernetes based deployments. This talk will cover the basics of Kubernetes, how it can be used to run Plone on scale, using proper configurations and enabling a more fault-tolerant and resilient infrastructure setup, also covering the progress made during the last Alpine Sprint.

I will start talking about the basics of Kubernetes, how it works (thinking in an audience that is used to run workloads based on docker). Once the basics are covered, I will explain how Plone may be installed using Kubernetes helms. Finally, I will close the presentation with some areas that Plone still may do better in the future, to support Plone in a real cloud native infrastructure (observability, logs, etc).
