What sorts of trouble can you cause? For years\, configu ration management has been touted as a way of guarding against the fragili ty that comes from having humans configure things manually\, but it isn’ t a complete safeguard against things going wrong. In this talk I’ll cov er the evolution of configuration management strategies used by operators to increase system robustness and will share stories about the ways that e ven mature management practices can fail. I’ll also discuss the underlyi ng problem from a human factors and resilience engineering perspective\, w ays to further increase the reliability of our tools\, and how those tools may keep evolving.

Pulumi is an open source tool that allows users to write their infrastructure code in TypeScript\, Python or Go.\n\nTypeScript allows infrastructure code to have integrated testing\, compile time checks as well as being able to create infrastruct ure APIs. This will show why a real language is more suited to infrastruct ure management than DSLs\, JSON or YAML. In addition\, he will cover how t o build infrastructure that manages Serverless\, PaaS and IaaS systems acr oss multiple cloud providers.

Many new projects have started\, and many have went on t o become foundational components of running applications at scale. Cloud p roviders have focused on a strategy of embracing open source not only to h elp build value added services\, but to also make it easy to use open sour ce on their compute platforms. Open source companies have reacted by chang ing their software licenses in an attempt to cut out the Cloud providers.\ n\nSo what does this mean for the future of open source? In this talk we ’ll revisit some of the foundational tenets of open source\, and compare these ideas to where open source has evolved. We’ll also talk about the pros and cons\, and maybe unintended consequences\, of Cloud based comput ing.

So obviously\, o bservability can be solved by throwing some tools together as well\; gener ally logs\, metrics\, and traces often called the trifecta of observabilit y.\n\nBut observability is not a tool — it is a property of a system. Mo ving from many small blackboxes to a more holistic view of your system. It includes tools\, but not exactly three distinct features (especially if y our solution happens to support those). For example\, if half your user ba se cannot access your service because of some bad DNS settings and externa l health checks are not part of your trifecta\, you are none the wiser.\n\ nThis is not (just) a rant\, but a look at the actual value to be added an d some approaches to it. Like turning your logs into richer events that al ign with your business. Which is not solved by fancy tools alone.

If one task requires too much YAML\, it’s easy to create an operator to take care of the repetitive cruft\, and only require a mini mum amount of YAML.\n\nOn the other hand\, since its beginnings\, the Go l anguage has been advertised as closer to the hardware\, and is now ubiquit ous in low-level programming. Kubernetes has been rewritten from Java to G o\, and its whole ecosystem revolves around Go. For that reason\, It’s o nly natural that Kubernetes provides a Go-based framework to create your o wn operator. While it makes sense\, it requires organizations willing to g o down this road to have Go developers\, and/or train their teams in Go. W hile perfectly acceptable\, this is not the only option. In fact\, since K ubernetes is based on REST\, why settle for Go and not use your own favori te language?\n\nIn this talk\, I’ll describe what is an operator\, how t hey work\, how to design one\, and finally demo a Java-based operator that is as good as a Go one.

To further complicate things\, different teams also have d ifferent concerns: Will this break prod? Will this cost too much?

It is extremely convenient to start new projects from scratch and automate your infrastructure right away. But what if you started without? What if you want to manage big amounts of *pre-existing Cloud resources* with Terraform?\n\nTerraform's **import** command is one building block\, but using it manually for many resources is very tedious and error-prone. A complete import mechanism is announced by Hashicorp\, b ut it is unclear when it will be implemented. In this talk I will show you how to work smart\, not hard: we will automate the import into the statef ile\, generate the required Terraform code and engineer the correctness of the result with automated tests.

We actively develop and integrate Salt as a core comp onent of some of our products. At times we work with customers and users w ho chose Ansible as their configuration management engine. They invested t ime and effort designing Ansible playbooks to define their infrastructure and they don't want to waste the effort. But often they then realize that with Salt they can do even more to configure and control their infrastruct ure with real-time\, persistent monitoring\, event-driven orchestration\, extreme modularity\, and more.\n\nThe Fluorine release of Salt comes with a new module called ansiblegate which was created by SUSE and allows Ansib le to be run from within Salt\, offering the best of both worlds. You can execute any Ansible module directly using Salt and you can even reuse your own Ansible playbooks and apply them using Salt.\n\nThis session will sho w how Salt is able to run Ansible using ansiblegate providing users with t he flexibility and optionality required to manage and secure diverse infra structure at scale. SUSE loves openness\, and this project gives Ansible a nd Salt users alike the ability to protect existing investments while leve raging the best infrastructure automation and configuration management for the job.

Kubernetes is a configurati on management tool for the container platform itself\, for the deployment of the application containers\, the routing and loadbalancing within the c ontainer network and the provisioning of persistent storage for important container data.\n\nUsing the principle of Infrastructure as Code and a dec larative model\, we can define the desired state in files containing so-ca lled Kubernetes resource configurations. By applying these configurations in a fully declarative way\, we can tell Kubernetes the desired state. We can make use of version control\, separation of code and data\, and idempo tence. By doing so\, we achieve automation\, standardization and reproduci bility.\n\nThis talk focuses on the combination of Git and Kubernetes for the administration of the container platform. We use Git for version contr ol of our Kubernetes resource configurations and perform a fully declarati ve application of these configurations to Kubernetes. DTSTAMP:20260309T212533Z LOCATION:B.

In fact\, DevOps\, testing and automation only make sense if all components are par t of the process.\n\nNeedless to mention\, I as an [OWASP Core Rule Set (C RS)](https://coreruleset.org) developer and enthusiast introduced the CRS to [Puzzle ITC](https://www.puzzle.ch/) when I joined them in 2019!\nBy pr oviding YAML templates\, we want to make it easy for developers to introdu ce WAFs into projects.

When was the last time your prescribed hour-long upgrade turned into a full-day endeavor? Have you been procrastinating upgrading your project ’s EOL’d backend service for fear of breaking APIs? In the Katello pr oject\, we certainly have experienced these issues ourselves. After learn ing lessons the hard way when upgrading our backend service Pulp years ago \, we’ve created a plan and are currently executing our latest upgrade t o Pulp 3 now. The upgrade could be painful if we’re not careful. How c an we switch to an in-development service with completely new concepts and APIs in a way that is easy for developers but still produces stable relea ses?\n\nIn this presentation\, I will share a development story that cover s prior mistakes we made and the lessons learned\, the planning and archit ecture of incrementally introducing Pulp 3\, and how we’ve maintained cl ear communication across the Katello and Pulp 3 teams to keep our efforts aligned.\nThis talk’s audience isn’t limited to developers alone\; any one in configuration management\, system administration\, or management fi elds should find it relatable as well.

It allo wed global object pollution\, was slow\, leaked across environments\, and in general contributed to Puppet master instability. But it was "good enou gh" and so building a new function API that addressed these issues didn't mean that people updated their modules. So I did it for them.

Commonly run tasks such as software updates and configurations can be done in a way that the results are always consistent. When using SaltStac k this is accomplished using state files. \n\nThese state files are usual ly written using YAML\, a human-readable data-serialization language\, t hat presents the dictionaries and lists that SaltStack uses into a friendl y format. Occasionally we need to go beyond the capabilities of what YAML can provide. \n\nIn this talk we'll explore some of the other ways that Salt states can be written\, including using Jinja formatting and writing state files in programming languages such as Python.

Embedded with electron ics\, internet connectivity\, and other forms of hardware (such as sensors )\, these devices can communicate and interact with others over the intern et\, and they can be remotely monitored and controlled.\n\nThis means that internet connected devices are moving out of the data centers and into a new environment which brings a range of new challenges. A dominating techn ology in this area is GNU/Linux and although best practices have been esta blished for GNU/Linux in the desktop and server world\, the IoT space is s till in its infancy and is most accurately comparable to the wild west due to the vast options in hardware configurations and software stacks.\n\nIn this presentation Mirza will cover specific areas within this space\, hig hlight the challenges and how they are solved today using open-source tech nologies.\n\nKey areas that Mirza will cover are:\n\n- Characteristic of t he connected device environment\n- Software updates and life cycle managem ent\n- Device management (Configuration management)\n- Security\n\nWe will also take a closer look on some of the trends that are emerging\, as “s erver technologies” are moving towards the edge devices.
