Containers Revisited, 4 years on
Thursday, Feb. 17, 2022, 10:30 – 11:50 a.m. PST Various teams at the UW began an investment in containers and Kubernetes in early 2018. Since then, Kubernetes has proved its value and established itself as the dominant orchestration technology upon which Cloud vendors have built container services. Most Cloud vendors now also provide serverless offerings for functions and single container instances. With short updates from several teams, we look at where that investment is paying and where it isn’t, and what’s next. Speakers:

Seeking a Single UW Person Identity
Thursday, Mar. 23, 2023, 11 – 11:50 a.m. PDT The UW has processes that reconcile and resolve identity records from multiple systems.

This session will provide a high level review of existing identity matching processes, challenges with those processes, and opportunities for improvements. Those opportunities will be considered for further study. Presenters will share perspectives from multiple UW organizations.
