Turbocharge Developer productivity with platform build on Kubernetes(k8s) and AWS services.

Join this talk to learn about how Laks and his team built a new platform and migrated monoliths to microservices which significantly improved developer's productivity. The developer platform seamlessly integrates continuous integration, delivery, deployment, monitoring and other tools and services, and abstracts infrastructure complexities by implementing organization specific security, compliance and network policies on top of open source Kubernetes(k8s) and AWS services at enterprise scale. Platform runs hundreds of Kubernetes clusters on AWS infrastructure and hosts 1000s of customer facing enterprise services. The K8s clusters were self managed , currently migrated to AWS managed EKS set up.
