Operators are currently gathering quite a lot of attention in the Container world, it has found its ways in many new technologies around Kubernetes. Leveraging Kubernetes’s extensibility it delivers the automation benefits of Cloud services like deploying, provisioning, scaling, and backup/restore while being platform agnostic. Operator SDK is used for developing and testing custom operators and we also have Operator Life Cycle Manager for all the numerous stages that an operator can go through. In this workshop, we will go through the basics of operators and types in which it can be implemented and build a simple GO-based operator. Also, we will go through the basics of Tektons a project by Google, which is built on Operator framework. To demonstrate Tektons pipelines, we will also build an OpenSource, container native CI/CD pipeline for building Images. This pipeline can have multiple checks like Sanity, Security, Integration that can amplify the reliability of the code.
Attendees would gain knowledge on Operators and types of operators. They would understand the Simplification and efficiency that operators can bring in to the application delivery and management. They would have hands-on experience building a simple Go based operator using operator sdk. Also, understand tektons and Build a container native CI/CD pipeline using tektons for building container Images and pushing it to registry
