Architecture for High-Performance Cloud-Native CDN
The demand for cloud-based content delivery networks (CDN) is growing fast in the 5G era, driven by the ever increasing volume of media services and high-quality video content on the network. To minimize the distance this content travels over the internet, communication service providers (CSPs) are widely deploying their CDNs at the Edge – including central offices, regional data centers, and other data centers.
To reduce the challenges of deploying and managing a complex network infrastructure, CSPs need a scalable, high-performance, and cost-efficient CDN platform. This webinar examines the architecture for an optimized platform using cloud-native infrastructure for Content Delivery systems on the Edge, the use of hardware and network acceleration technologies, and best practices for automation and life cycle management.

Featured Robin presentation:
Re-Imagining the 3-2-1 Backup Rule for Cloud Native Applications Running on Kubernetes
US-CERT in its publication of Data Backup Options in 2012 recommended the 3-2-1 backup rule. Have 3 copies of data, 2 copies on different media and 1 offsite. As simple as it seems, it applies to the applications running on kubernetes to protect against the node, disk failures, manual errors, natural disasters.
In this presentation, we will present the storage architecture and various kubernetes building blocks to implement this practice. The details will include how to keep two copies of application data on two different disks (app replicated or CSI replicated storage). It will cover the intricacies and challenges of capturing the stateful app snapshot that includes kubernetes objects and persistent volume data to be able to transfer the backup copy to an offsite location. In the context of off-site copy, we will look into the storage architecture for using various cloud storage media including the object stores to enable use cases like disaster recovery, analytics and test and dev using cloud compute . It will be followed by a 3-2-1 rule demo of a complex distributed stateful app like mongodb/cassandra.

Building your own managed services on private/hybrid clouds
Learn how platform engineers and cloud architects can leverage Kubernetes to build in-house managed services with easy self-service provisioning and day-two operations. Developers expect the self-service experience and simplicity of public clouds to be translated to private and hybrid clouds. We’ll discuss how private clouds need to evolve beyond infrastructure management and provide an “as-a-service” experience similar to Amazon RDS, Amazon EMR etc.
