Level Up your Infrastructure Skills

In this presentation, I challenge the audience to work on fifteen scenarios to up-level their infrastructure engineering skills.

This version of the talk was given at devopsdays Kraków in April 2023.

Transcript

1. Level up your Infrastructure Skills with a Compute Cluster
2. Sr. Developer Advocate at HashiCorp he / him @ksatirli Kerim Satirli
3. Challenge: become a better ops engineer
4. Infrastructure Security Orchestration Packaging Networking
5. Infrastructure Security Orchestration Packaging Networking compute storage databases APIs mailing load balancing authentication authorization databases enc. at-rest applications algorithms constraints architectures hardware supp. delivery method formats limits architecture security patching provenance domain reg. DNS ingress / egress authorization observability protocols networking disaster recovery
7. What we need
8. +
9. + Ops Engineering Training
10. Path: Packaging 01
11. create an image that is 99% complete Scenario 1 create an image that supports multiple targets Scenario 2 create an image pipeline that is trustable Scenario 3
12. Path: Infrastructure 02
13. Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 dynamically configure images using cloud-init make infrastructure changes predictable alter infrastructure based on external inputs
14. Security 03
15. Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 make infrastructure changes predictable manage passwords and API tokens externally manage user directories and access policies
16. Networking 04
17. Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 create secure ingress / egress flows build observability into your network stack update DNS based on cluster utilization
18. Orchestration 05
19. Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 deploy workloads based on hardware requirements experiment with different deployment methods build a pipeline to run an app on an orchestrator
