KubeCon and CloudNativeCon Austin 2017
With the Christmas season upon us, what better way to spend the holidays in between eating mince pies and watching Christmas telly than catching up on the latest and greatest developments in the world of Kubernetes?
With KubeCon and CloudNativeCon Austin 2017 just a few weeks behind us, and a healthy complement of recorded sessions now up and available for download, we thought the Christmas period would be an ideal time to catch up. With 179 videos available on the CNCF YouTube playlist encompassing nearly four days of viewing, the team here at LiveWyer thought we would share with you our own Christmas playlist of talks that we think encompass the festive season.
Our KubeCon Favourites
If you only watch a few talks, we would suggest these three keynotes. What you should be looking forward to in 2018, Game of Thrones, and Kelsey being hilarious; What more could you want?

Istio
Having seen these keynotes, if for some reason you still haven’t taken the time to look into the oncoming force that is Istio, what are you waiting for? This is a great time to sit down and learn about what makes it tick before we move into 2018.
