Kubernetes is a platform that offers great extensibility and flexibility to its users. However, like most distributed systems, managing Kubernetes comes with its own set of challenges. Ensuring resilience in your network configuration helps protect against many common issues, but figuring out the best network setup is confusing at best.

In this talk, Angela will take a deep look at networking in Kubernetes. She will examine the different types of networking an operator and application developer should care about, such as Container Network Interface plugins, types of load balancing, and service meshes. By discussing each of these networking layers, attendees will be equipped to better set up their Kubernetes clusters to protect against downtime and other network problems.
