Level-Up your Jenkins-based Delivery with Keptn


Level-Up your Jenkins-based Delivery with Keptn with Andi Grabner Want to level-up your Jenkins Pipelines with Keptn? In this webinar we show you how to “Automate Build Approvals through SLI/SLO based Quality Gates” and how to “Enable a Performance-Driven Culture through Performance as a Self-Service”.

Putting Chaos into Continuous Delivery - how to increase the resilience of your applications


Putting Chaos into Continuous Delivery - how to increase the resilience of your applications with Jürgen EtzlstorferWe will discuss how you can construct continuous delivery pipelines that include chaos experimentation while simulating real-world load to test the resilience of applications. On top, we implement quality gates based on SLOs to ensure resilient applications are deployed into production. Continuous Delivery practices have evolved significantly with the cloud-native paradigm. GitOps & Chaos Engineering are at the forefront of this new CD approach, with an ever-increasing pattern involving Git-backed pipeline definitions that implement “chaos stages” in pre-prod environments to gauge SLO compliance. In this talk, we will discuss how you can construct pipelines that include chaos experimentation (mapped to declarative hypothesis around application steady-state) while simulating real-world load and implement quality gates to ensure resilient applications are deployed into production. All this - in a GitOps native manner. We will also demonstrate how you can include chaos tests to your existing CD pipelines without the need of rewriting them.

Overcoming (organizational) scalability issues in your Prometheus ecosystem


Overcoming (organizational) scalability issues in your Prometheus ecosystem with Jürgen Etzlstorfer, Dynatrace Prometheus is considered a foundational building block when running applications on Kubernetes and has become the de-facto open-source standard for visibility and monitoring in Kubernetes environments.Your first starting points when operating Prometheus are most probably configuring scraping to pull your metrics from your services, building dashboards on top of your data with Grafana, or defining alerts for important metrics breaching thresholds in your production environment. in your production environment.As soon as you are comfortable with Prometheus as your weapon of choice, your next challenges will be scaling and managing Prometheus for your whole fleet of applications and environments. As the journey “From Zero to Prometheus Hero” is not trivial you will find obstacles on the way. In this presentation, we are highlighting the most common challenges we have seen and provide guidance on how to overcome them. Finally, we are discussing a solution to get you there more quickly to build automated, future-proof observability with Prometheus showing Keptn as one possible implementation.

Keptn-in-a-box - delivering the Autonomous Cloud out of the box


Keptn-in-a-box - delivering the Autonomous Cloud out of the box with Sergio Hinojosa, Dynatrace Keptn-In-A-Box is part of the automation for delivering Autonomous Cloud Workshops with Dynatrace. This is not a tutorial but more an explanation of what the shell file set up for you on a plain Ubuntu image. A simple Bash script will set-up a fully functional Single Node Kubernetes Cluster with Dynatrace installed and Kubernetes Cluster, Cloud Applications, and Events monitoring enabled. This script is used as userdata when spinning up elastic compute images (ec2) in amazon web services, but it can run also manually in a Linux machine or VM with snap installed. The tested distro is Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS For spinning up instances automatically with AWS completely configured and set up, and also automating the creation and management of Dynatrace environments.Try it yourself in our tutorials.
