OpenTelemetry has transformed the observability landscape by moving beyond the traditional three pillars of traces, metrics, and logs. With these core components now stable, the project is expanding its reach to encompass even more facets of system monitoring and performance analysis. In this session, we will explore the latest advancements in OpenTelemetry, including the integration of profiling, which offers deeper insights into application performance by capturing detailed execution data. Additionally, we'll discuss the emerging concept of entities, which promises to provide a more holistic view of system components and their interactions. By expanding its capabilities, OpenTelemetry is not just enhancing the granularity and scope of observability but also setting the stage for more comprehensive and actionable insights. Join us to learn how these new developments can help you achieve unparalleled visibility into your systems and drive better operational outcomes.

Access tokens open the doors to APIs, and Keycloak and OpenID Connect provide you the ways to get them. The authentication code flow provides them to users and the client credential grant provides it to services. With token exchange, you can swap one token for another with the right audience and scopes so it fits the APIs.
Join this talk to learn how to get tokens, how to customize their contents, and what changed in our recent releases.

Often, our cloud native thought process begins after we have created containers. Only when we complete the "docker build" command, do all the notions of cloud native come into the picture. This talk raises the question - is that the only way to build containers?
Enter Cloud Native Buildpacks. These make the container build process so much easier. While the end product is an OCI-compatible image, the process in getting there is much more refined with Cloud Native Buildpacks.
The images exported by Buildpacks are smaller, more transparent, and have improved security. They also preclude meta information such as static Dockerfiles, and are infinitely more maintainable as a result.

Kubernetes policy management has evolved significantly. From basic admission controllers to automating complex, imperative configurations, the journey has highlighted the need for declarative, Kubernetes-native solutions. This lightning talk will explore how Kyverno represents the next generation of Policy as Code for Kubernetes. We'll delve into its declarative approach using Kubernetes manifests, its powerful pattern matching for resource selection, and its ability to mutate, validate, and generate Kubernetes resources and validate images. Discover how Kyverno simplifies policy authoring, enhances security and compliance, and empowers platform engineers and developers alike to manage Kubernetes at scale, all within the familiar Kubernetes ecosystem.
