Getting the Most of Open-Source Projects in Enterprise Software - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

As a leader at an enterprise technology company, you’ve probably been faced with the following choice when creating a brand new product - build everything yourself from scratch, or start with open-source technologies as a base. There are, of course, pros and cons to both. When the team at Replicated started working on Embedded Cluster, a software installer that bundles a Kubernetes cluster with an enterprise application, they were faced with this exact problem. After exploring countless options, they ultimately decided to build their new product on top of Mirantis’ K0s. In this session, led by Marc Campbell, CTO and Co-Founder of Replicated and Chris Sanders, Director of Customer Reliability Engineering, we will explore the process Marc and Chris’s team went through in deciding when, how, and why to build Embedded Cluster on top of Mirantis’ K0s open-source project. Marc and Chris will discuss the benefits of building enterprise software with open-source projects, and will provide insights into how their team chose K0s, what the process was like prototyping different designs, and how they ended up with the product they have today. We will broadly discuss how to make the most of K0s in your enterprise software and what the Replicated team learned in their own journey. Chris and Marc will reveal what went well, and what changes they’d make if they went through the process again. Join us to gain a better understanding in how to make the most of open-source software when designing and building enterprise software.
