Getting Started with vcluster in Production
FOSSY 2023

This talk will provide guidance on how to get started with using vcluster in production. Users may have worked with vcluster for dev / test / preview environments but there are other use cases for vcluster including production environments. We will take a look at some of the considerations such as network policies and security, as well as autoscaling and other features available in cloud providers. There will even be demos! vcluster is Virtual Kubernetes Clusters that run inside regular namespaces. Virtual clusters have their own API server which makes them much more powerful and better isolated than namespaces, but they are also much cheaper than creating separate "real" Kubernetes clusters. If you are hitting the scalability limits of k8s because you are running a large-scale multi-tenant cluster, you can now split up and effectively shared your clusters into vclusters.
