Advanced cluster bootstrapping with kubara - Jan Larwigin-person
Platform engineering across many Kubernetes clusters can quickly become a tangle of charts, infrastructure modules, and GitOps configuration. Kubara introduces a new package manager to the ecosystem: It can bundle all those pieces into a single reusable OCI artifact called a catalog. kubara uses it to generate reproducible manifests, scripts, modules and can bootstrap a clusters in minutes with Argo CD for GitOps reconciliation.
I’ll give a short introduction to the engineering challenge of platform building and how kubara's approach works. By bootstrapping a demo cluster in under 10 minutes.
I invite you to bring out your scepticism and questions. You are welcome to "Grill me" and the tool.

Agentic Platform Engineering - Johannes Rudolph - CTO, meshcloudin-person
YOLO'ing code got cheap, but building the confidence to deploy to it to prod did not. Applying agents to platform engineering work hits different than software engineering. Reconciling infrastructure changes is slow and the stakes are high. When the only thing between your agent and your production database is a line in AGENTS.md, you should join this session. Johannes will not only share how to make agents safe, but also how they make platform engineering fun again
