Mateusz Dymiński: Zero-Downtime deployments with Kubernetes

Developers, Ops teams, and end users have always been nervous about deployments because maintenance windows had a tendency to expand, causing unwanted downtime. Teams of ops engineers used to handle deployment efforts by-hand or via scripting - this process might take hours, if not all night. The revolutionary Kubernetes deployment system, on the other hand, has built-in features that automate this operations effort, where end-user won't be able to notice that the application version has changed in meantime. The presentation shows the technics which we as developers might use to make the deployment smooth and invisible for our users. Of course, the work needs to be done on both sides: development and operations to achieve our Zero-Downtime goal - so presentation would be rather a code and Kubernetes examples heavy than the plain theory.
