Calling all Kubernauts - let's get technical in our November meetup!

In order to provide zero-config observability for service owners running their application on Kubernetes, Linkerd 2.0 needs to scale to any size Kubernetes cluster. In this talk, Andrew Seigner from the Linkerd team will demo Linkerd 2.0 features made possible by Prometheus, including a user-friendly dashboard, a simple yet powerful CLI, & Grafana integration. Hell outline how Linkerd evolved its Prometheus integration to leverage Prometheuss ability to handle massive sets of metrics, & demonstrate the scale this integration enables.

You can expect to learn:

- Best practices for observability via Prometheus & Grafana.
- Observe requests & TCP-level metrics for Kubernetes objects.
- How to debug & diagnose issues with your Kubernetes service.

Here's the tentative agenda:

6:30pm-7pm: F&B & networking
7pm-7:30pm: Andrew
7:30pm-8:00pm: second talk TBD
8:00pm-9:30pm: Q&A & networking
