Taking the Leap: Seamlessly Transition Legacy Applications to Kubernetes

For many organizations, moving legacy applications to modern cloud infrastructures holds great promise, such as reducing IT overhead and accelerating development times. However, in reality, these projects can be fraught with delays and service interruptions while burdening your team with transition tasks.

In this talk, we are covering how to seamlessly connect the old world with the new, as well as how to modernize legacy services to run on a modern cloud native stack. With technologies such as Kong Mesh, a control plane for service mesh built on Kuma, and Weave Kubernetes Platform, teams can progressively move legacy applications to Kubernetes — controlled and securely. Built-in GitOps workflows ensure developer-friendly operations for Kubernetes, while ensuring high availability and disaster recovery across multiple backends.
