Kubernetes Testing Environments: Tools, Traps and Tips" by Pablo Chacin, Staff Engineer at Grafana Labs.

There are many situations in which we want to test our application in a development Kubernetes environment. In some cases, we want to test tools that interact with the clusters, while in other cases, our application must run inside the cluster. There are many tools available, but they are not all equally adapted to every use case. In this talk we will discuss the benefits and limitations of different tools and some practices to facilitate developing our test.

How Glovo Manages Hundreds of Databases Without Losing Sleep" by Nishaad Ajani, Senior Software Engineer, Storage at Glovo.

Discover how Glovo simplifies infrastructure management by reducing dependency on Terraform and adopting hybrid solutions. In this talk, we’ll explore:

‑Moving beyond Terraform with a custom Kubernetes operator for managing Aurora RDS clusters.
‑A hybrid approach combining Terraform and GitOps to enable seamless updates with minimal friction.
‑Automating MySQL engine upgrades using AWS blue/green deployment flows and state machines.
‑Overcoming challenges like GitHub API limits and latency-induced failures during upgrades.

Learn how these innovations minimize toil, accelerate updates, and enhance developer workflows.
