Are you trying to balance your CI/CD resources and effort between Kubernetes and your legacy tech? Don't know how to encourage adoption of the new processes? On this episode of Merging to Main, we'll cover just that. This episodes guest is Mark Panthofer, VP of DevOps & Cloud at nvisia and, during this session, Brandon and Mark discuss how your CI/CD can coexist between two distinct technology worlds.

Kit Merker is the one of the original product managers for Kubernetes and now Chief Growth Officer at Nobl9 where they're delivering a new open standard called OpenSlo. SLOs, or service-level-objectives, provide a framework for understanding performance targets and making judgements about software changes and how they impact uptime. But it's not just a standard, it's also code. Come find out about it with Kit in this GitOps the Planet!

Kat Cosgrove's (@Dixie3Flatline) unique mix of wit and technical acumen has made her one of the most influential thought leaders in DevOps. She recently gave a number of talks focused on the history and evolution of CI/CD, how it started, and how it's changing. In this GitOps the Planet we'll dive into that history along with how GitOps is changing the automation game once again.

GitOps has been at the forefront of agile deployments. However, managing these deployments at a scale, with a constantly growing number of environments can be a daunting task for startups. In this webinar, Ovais Tariq, Co-Founder and CEO, and Robert Barabas, Founding Engineer share how Tigris addressed some of these challenges with the help of Codefresh's Hosted ArgoCD!

Feature Flagging comes with many benefits, like testing new features in a live environment without exposing them to all users, rolling back changes quickly if something goes wrong, and helping isolate the feature development process from deployment so you can better manage your dev cycles. Like everything in the CI/CD world, all features and tools require careful consideration. You want to avoid creating additional tech debt and complicating your codebase, and you certainly want to avoid introducing unnecessary work to a likely already overworked team.

The first real application for AI and LLMs has come to Kubernetes in the form of K8sGPT, a cli that can be used to help operators understand exactly what's going on with their clusters. Our guest, Alex Jones, is the creator of K8sGPT and we'll talk about how the project started, where it's seeing the biggest uses, and where AI will impact DevOps in the future.

Itay is the VP Open Source at Aqua Security and CNCF Ambassador. In this GitOps the Planet, we'll discuss open source, dev advocacy, community and how we approach these open source roles. Open source lives at the intersection of community and business, striking the right balance and tone is critical to having a sustainable project with strong community buy-in to serve as the foundation for successful businesses. Come hear all about it!

Liz Rice has a knack for predicting the future of DevOps and she's all a buzz about eBPF, a revolutionary technology to dynamically program kernels for networking, observability, tracing, and security. The technology is driving a lot of excitement but what does the ability to hook into the kernel really give us and how is it changing software delivery? Join this exploratory session of GitOps the Planet with Liz Rice to find out!

Michael Crenshaw joined the ArgoProj in the last 2 years and has quickly become one of the most active maintainers. In this GitOps the Planet we'll explore what brought him to work on Argo CD, where we see opportunities to improve software delivery, take questions from Argo users, and share what's coming in the next version of Argo CD.

The first-ever Codefresh Build and Deploy is in the books! We had a fun day full of best practices, tips and tricks, and end-user success stories from DevOps professionals, developers, and CI/CD experts. Plus, a surprise game of CI/CD Jeopardy.
