Start using the Kubernetes Gateway API now rather than Ingress

Have you been struggling to set up network load balancing and managing web traffic in Kubernetes?

The Ingress API in Kubernetes seems to be too basic and not expressive enough to help you accomplish what you need. You may end up with many downstream implementation details in your configuration that are not portable. It gets even more complicated when you have developers, operators and network engineers working on the same shared configuration.

Dynamic Kubernetes based Feature Environment on AWS

The core engineering principle at Prenetics is “You build it; you run it” and in order for our engineers to fully embrace this DevOps model, they must be able to easily build and test locally, thereby reducing the build and test feedback loop to the minimum. To this end we have developed the Dynamic Feature Environment allows engineers to spin up/down a fully functional independent K8s cluster that runs our full set of microservices. In this talk we will share our experience implementing and using the Dynamic Feature Environment.

Write and enforce fine-grained application permissions using Policy-as-Code with Cedar

Cedar is an open-source language and software development kit (SDK) for writing and enforcing authorization policies for your applications.  Using Cedar, you can express fine-grained permissions as easy-to-understand policies enforced in your applications, allowing you to decouple access control from your application logic. In this session, we will introduce the core concepts behind the Cedar policy language and authorization engine, as well as how you can leverage this open source project to add access control into your applications.
