An ecosystem has emerged around Kubernetes – the open source project of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) already celebrating its tenth anniversary in 2024 – which has significantly shaped cloud-native software development and operations: application delivery via containers is common in distributed systems practice. Development and operations teams still face a variety of challenges. Therefore, the CLC conference presents – Persistent Lifecycle/ContainerConf For a decade we have been providing expert knowledge for Dev(sec)Ops and Platform Engineering teams and providing answers, information and support for day-to-day projects related to Continuous Integration (CI), Continuous Delivery (CD), Dev(sec)Ops and GitOps.

Practical information in five workshops
The eleventh edition of the event organized by iX and dpunkt.verlag will take place again at the Congress Center Rosengarten in Mannheim from November 12 to November 14, 2024. Tickets with an early bird discount can still be booked until September 30.
As long as it Lecture Program This year, the focus is, among other things, on AI-supported DevOps, Kubernetes Security and FinOps, as well as Sustainability, with experienced experts providing practical insights in the areas of CI/CD in five workshops on November 12, the day before the actual conference, Kubernetes, Observability and Site Reliability Engineering.
Observability and Site Reliability Engineering

To keep software operations under control in complex distributed environments, modern observability methods and tools are essential. In his Workshop on LGTM Stack Thorsten Wussow, together with the participants, is developing an approach to how metrics, logs and traces can be efficiently monitored and displayed using Grafana Labs tools (Loki, Grafana, Tempo and Mimir).
In OpenTelemetry Workshop by Heiko Rupp and Jan Westerkamp The focus is on distributed tracing. Participants should not only learn the basics of identifying and dealing with problems in distributed applications, but also gain practical insight into the instrumentation of software using Java/Quarkus and Python examples.

The core topic of how site reliability engineering (SRE) contributes to the reliable operation of distributed systems Workshops by Bastian Spangenberg and Marcel Birkner. On the one hand, the tutorial explains basic SRE principles, but also gives participants an interactive insight into the areas of monitoring and observation, incident response, as well as post-mortem and root cause analysis, so that they can incorporate these into their daily project life.
CI/CD pipeline and workload management
Using a practical example, Nicolas Delay, Senior DevOps Engineer at Haufe Group, shows how developers can use GitLab to simplify their everyday DevSecOps project work and make them efficient and secure. Configure the CI/CD pipeline,
With practical exercises on Kubernetes clusters, participants can learn from Erkan Yanar how it works Workload Management in Kubernetes Can be designed infrastructure-agnostic. The workshop addresses, among other things, the question of how to declaratively configure the pods or containers of a database cluster to be distributed across different nodes – without knowing the host names or accepting service after a database cluster update.
