Architecture

The Evolution of Distributed Systems on Kubernetes

Tell us a little bit about yourself and what you are currently working on.

I currently work for Red Hat as a Product Manager. I look after Data Integration and how data integration might look like in a cloud native world. Everything is moving on Kubernetes and OpenShift including data. I look after projects such as Debezium for Change Data Capture, Data Virtualization and helping drive the roadmap.

What are the goals of your talk?

Throughout the talk, we will look at what are the needs of distributed systems, what are the main features you would expect from a distributed system platform and how such platforms have evolved starting from monolithic architectures like SOA and ESB, how that changed during the Kubernetes and microservices era. And more recently, what are the latest developments in the different areas of cloud native? Our goal is to try to see where these developments may be taking us. What might be the next architecture after microservices, whether that's serverless or something else? The goal is to try to find an answer for this.
