[Re-Cap] SPIFFE Community Day: Spring 2018
On Friday, March 9, 2018, Scytale hosted SPIFFE’s quarterly “Community Day” gathering. For those of you who haven’t yet attended, the event (which Scytale used to host on a monthly basis) is a great way to 1) participate in SPIFFE and SPIRE, and 2) connect with individuals tackling enterprise problems related to the lack of a universal service identity concept like SPIFFE provides. Personally, these meetings are a real treat for me, as I get to actually develop real, human connections with people (which seems to be rare these days!).
The meeting agenda was chock full of great updates, presentations, and demos from Scytale and our friends at Google and VMware (hi, Neel!). While we had ~45 in-person participants (at Gunderson’s office in San Francisco, California, USA), we had ~50 attendees online, including one who was up at 3am to stay connected with the gathered group (hi, Tomoya-san!).
For those of you who couldn’t attend, we recorded the session for your convenience:
Since the slides from the gathering (see below) do not include the demos from Google nor VMware (both of whom presented from their own laptops), we’ve included in the slides links to the exact time(s) within the recording above when such demos occurred.
The next SPIFFE Community Day will most likely occur in late June 2017. For more informations about that and other happenings with the project, please join the SPIFFE-announce distribution list. To learn more about staying in touch with the SPIFFE community, visit the project’s GitHub page.
