KubeCon 2015

Security, easy scaling, and high availability are essential needs for real-world application infrastructure. This tutorial will show how to set up a production-ready cluster with full Transport Layer Security (TLS), manage the cluster through scaling and upgrade, and build the cluster for high-availability. The discussion will address TLS management, managing your machines over time, and upgrading Kubernetes itself while keeping availability.

After bootstrapping a securely configured Kubernetes cluster attendees will learn how to manage the cluster through a variety of production situations like etcd member host failure, worker node failures, and cluster scaling.

This talk will assume you understand the basics of Kubernetes and are interested in the finer points of operating a cluster for a production use case. The examples will be based on our use of Kubernetes to host CoreOS SaaS products and recommendations we give to customers of Tectonic by CoreOS.
