CI/CD Pipelines & Docker Cluster Management

CI/CD Pipelines & Docker Clusters Management.

In the last couple of years, Natural Intelligence moved their Microservice architecture operation to docker and then to Docker Swarm. They have built some basic CI/CD pipelines to support the business needs. These two talks are about thins Journey which is still ongoing. Natural Intelligence have learned the importance of a stable CI/CD pipeline and how to handle the cluster management system.

Talks:
Escaping the Jungle or The Vision of a Unified CI/CD Pipeline -Anton Weiss

What do you do when you have dozens of revenue-generating services built on a multitude of technologies? How do you ensure the rapid pace of change without disappointing your users and not going crazy along the way? You need a strong CI/CD backbone that will take your code to production in a streamlined, observable and secure manner. Sounds easy! Almost like building the Tel Aviv Light Rail!
In this talk we'll present the vision for building such a backbone at Natural Intelligence and describe our progress up until now.

The real-life pains of Docker Swarm and our roadmap to Kubernetes - Daniel Bar

Today our polyglot microservices are running over Docker Swarm clusters on multiple regions in AWS. Tomorrow, we are moving our services into Kubernetes. We are going to discuss what we learned building, stabilizing swarm. and why after almost two years using swarm we decided to move to K8s. And how we plan to handle features as canary releases, ingress control, cross-region/platform over K8s clusters all in AWS cloud.
