Discover the Business Value of Edge Computing

When: 5:35-6 p.m. EDT, Wednesday, Oct. 26

Where: Live | 251 ABC

Presenters: Muneyb Minhazuddin, CMO, Network and Edge Group, Intel; Larry Carvalho, RobustCloud LLC; Stu Miniman, Red Hat; Marilyn Basanta, VMware

Abstract: This panel will discuss how cloud native tools provide business benefits to applying edge technology for physical process efficiencies. Specifically, Muneyb Minhazuddin will talk about how a manufacturer modernizes applications on the factory floor as they converge IT and OT to create a dynamic and agile production line by software defining constrained devices.

Energizing the Manufacturing Industry with Kubernetes and Cloud Native

When: 11:55 a.m.-12:30 p.m. EDT, Thursday, Oct. 27

Where: Virtual | Viewable in Platform

Presenter: Marcel Wagner, principal engineer, Network and Edge Group, Intel

Abstract: In his talk, Marcel Wagner will present the Cloud Native Digital Twin architecture of IndustryFusion Foundation (IFF). He will showcase a special Kubernetes operator to monitor and deploy the factory processes as Apache Flink jobs, defined with Streaming SQL. He will also describe his experience running Kubernetes and cloud native in a manufacturing environment, especially the challenges he overcame with the machine builders and factory owners to make them comfortable with this approach.

Class Resources: Kubernetes' Fastest Way of Shushing Noisy Neighbors

When: 4:30-5:05 p.m. EDT, Thursday, Oct. 27

Where: Live | 140 ABC

Presenters: Markus Lehtonen, cloud orchestration software engineer, Software and Advanced Technology Group, Intel; Peter Hunt, Red Hat

Abstract: In this joint talk, Markus Lehtonen and Peter Hunt present the concept of class resources, the prior work done in the container runtimes, as well as the future of first-class integration. People who join will learn that class resources is the best way to let their applications run in peace.

Improving User Experience for Device Consumption in Kubernetes

Time: 5:25-6 p.m. EDT, Thursday, Oct. 27

Where: Live | 140 ABC

Presenters: Alexander Kanevskiy, principal engineer, Cloud Orchestration Software, Software and Advanced Technology Group, Intel; Patrick Ohly, system software engineer, Software and Advanced Technology Group, Intel; Kate Goldenring, Microsoft

Abstract: This talk will cover several stories of how different types of devices can be used in Kubernetes clusters. Presenters will discuss projects and proposals in the Kubernetes ecosystem that are working toward the goal of connecting devices and workloads. They will also discuss how to get involved in this evolution to let workloads be utterly materialistic.

Node Resource Interface: Extending Containers and CRI-O with Common Plug-ins

When: 11-11:35 a.m. EDT, Friday, Oct. 28

Where: Live | 140 ABC

Presenters: Krisztian Litkey, cloud orchestration software engineer, Software and Advanced Technology Group, Intel; Mike Brown, IBM

Abstract: This talk will take a closer look at how node resource interface (NRI) and plug-ins fit into runtimes, as well as cover some common and novel use cases and plug-ins for OCI hook injection and custom resource assignment.

Kubernetes Networking Infrastructure Offload

When: 4-4:35 p.m. EDT, Friday, Oct. 28

Where: Live | 330 AB | Huntington Place

Presenters: Dan Daly, software architect, Network and Edge Group, Intel; Nupur Jain, software cloud architect, Network and Edge Group, Intel; Nabil Bitar, Bloomberg; Moshe Levi, Nvidia; Valas Valancius, Google

Abstract: Networking is central to Kubernetes, as it enables secure and deterministic scale out. This panel will discuss approaches that share a common methodology based on existing Kubernetes APIs to improve performance, free up compute cycles and preserve compatibility with existing cloud native applications.
