Kurt Rinehart - Director of Information Engineering, Section
Bart Farrell - Head of Community, Data on Kubernetes Community

ABSTRACT OF THE TALK

Making complicated things simple is a prime objective of technology. In addition to technical challenges there is an interfacing challenge. At Section we're automating all dimensions of hosting containerized workloads and solving the "location challenge" is one aspect of this. Making it simple to get the locations you want evokes many trade-offs and can collide with past habits that may no longer be suitable.
