Kubernetes Governance at CNCF

Governance in engineering refers to the ability of the operations team to verify and enforce certain policies and standards across the entire organization or within specific clusters. The policies and standards you want to enforce come from your organization’s established guidelines or agreed-upon conventions, and best practices within the industry. It could also be derived from the knowledge that has accumulated over the years within your operations and development teams.

In this webinar, we will go through a real example of how we implemented a simple governance framework using Rego and OPA. We will focus on a simple policy and go through its full life cycle. The same process could be applied to other policies and you can easily extrapolate from this example to meet your own specific needs.

Expect to learn:

• What is governance and why it is important?
• How to establish your own governance framework?
• How Open Policy Agent and the Rego language could help?
• Automating the enforcement of your policies through your development and deployment lifecycle.
• Example policies for Kubernetes
