AI and ML: Let’s Talk About the Boring (yet Critical!) Operational Side - Rob Koch, Slalom Build & Milad Vafaeifard, Epam

Wednesday November 13, 2024 12:10pm - 12:45pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

As AI and ML become increasingly prevalent, it’s worth looking harder at the operational side of running these applications. We need a lot of compute and access to GPU workloads. We also need to be reliable, while providing rock-solid separation between datasets and training processes. And we need great observability in case things go wrong, and must be simple to operate. Let's build our ML applications on top of a service mesh instead of spending resources reimplementing the wheel – or, worse, the flat tire. Join us for a lively, informative, and entertaining look at how a service mesh can solve real-world issues with ML applications while making it simpler and faster to actually get things done in the world of ML. Rob Koch, Principal at Slalom Build, will demonstrate how you can use Linkerd together with multiple clusters to develop, debug, and deploy an ML application in Kubernetes (including IPv6 and GPUs), with special attention to multitenancy and scaling.

A Tale of 2 Drivers: GPU Configuration on the Fly Using DRA - Alay Patel & Varun Ramachandra Sekar US, Nvidia

Wednesday November 13, 2024 3:25pm - 4:00pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

NVIDIA’s GeForceNow is a cloud gaming service that allows users to stream video games from NVIDIA's servers to a wide range of devices, including PCs, Macs, Android devices, iOS devices, and smart TVs. Under the hood, it is powered by Kubernetes running Kubevirt VMs. For a seamless user experience, GeForceNow dynamically switches GPU drivers to accommodate either passing through an entire GPU or slicing it into multiple virtual GPUs, all while keeping utilization close to 100% across the datacenter. This poses significant challenges when using the traditional device plugin API provided by Kubernetes. In this talk, we explore GeForce Now’s journey to transition away from the traditional device plugin API in favor of Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA). We'll share valuable insights for anyone looking to perform a similar migration of their own. Join us to learn about the challenges, solutions, and best practices to help optimize your GPU-accelerated workloads in the cloud.

Kubernetes Workspaces: Enhancing Multi-Tenancy with Intelligent Apiserver Proxying - James Munnelly & Andrea Tosatto, Apple

Thursday November 14, 2024 11:00am - 11:35am MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Multi-tenancy in Kubernetes means sacrificing essential features like cluster-scoped list/watches and multi-namespace/cluster-scoped RBAC. This often leads to additional complexity when configuring operators and forces discrepancies and friction with cluster-as-a-service type offerings. In this talk we will go through a demonstration of an intelligent Kubernetes apiserver proxy that introduces the concept of a ‘workspace’. Borrowing the name from the KCP project, a Workspace is a virtual apiserver endpoint that provides a ‘cluster-scoped’ view over a group of namespaces in a remote cluster. We’ll then go on to discuss optimisations and changes that we’d like to make within Kubernetes to better support apiserver proxying for multi-tiered caching, routing and scoping purposes.

Running Quantum-Safe Applications on Kubernetes - Paul Schweigert & Michael Maximilien, IBM Quantum

Thursday November 14, 2024 11:55am - 12:30pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Quantum computers pose a unique threat to computer security, as the encryption standards we rely upon are vulnerable to powerful quantum computers. While those computers are still several years away, "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks put all data not protected using quantum-safe security at risk. So what can we do now to protect our applications? In this talk, Paul will demo how to deploy a quantum-safe application on Kubernetes. He'll provide a brief overview of quantum-safe cryptography and why it's needed, highlight key work being done in the open source community to migrate to quantum-safe cryptography, and conclude with a demo of how to build a quantum-safe cloud-native application. In particular, he'll show where and how to make changes to a Kubernetes environment to ensure users are protected by quantum-safe connections. At the conclusion of this session, listeners will have a set of practical steps they can take to help secure their applications in a post-quantum world.

Running WebAssembly (Wasm) Workloads Side-by-Side with Container Workloads - Jiaxiao Zhou, Microsoft

Thursday November 14, 2024 2:30pm - 3:05pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Sidecar containers are a powerful Kubernetes design pattern, running alongside the main application within the same pod to provide supporting features like observability, configuration and communication. However, sidecars can be resource-intensive, adding up to high CPU, memory and network bandwidth usage. WebAssembly (Wasm) offers a solution with its low resource usage and minimal memory footprint compared to Linux containers. Its quick start-up time enables scale-to-zero capability, making it a perfect fit for sidecar containers. The Containerd Runwasi project extends the sidecar pattern by enabling Kubernetes-native deployment and management of Wasm workloads.This talk will show how you can get started deploying Wasm sidecars to support your primary services with additional functionality. It will conclude with a demo of integrating these Wasm sidecars with your existing sidecar framework, whether that be Service Mesh or Dapr. Tune in to see Wasm sidecars on Kubernetes!

Load-Aware GPU Fractioning for LLM Inference on Kubernetes - Olivier Tardieu & Yue Zhu, IBM

Thursday November 14, 2024 3:25pm - 4:00pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

As the popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs) grows, LLM serving systems face challenges in efficiently utilizing GPUs on Kubernetes. In many cases, dedicating an entire GPU to a small or unpopular model is a waste, however understanding the relationship between request load and resource requirements has been difficult. This talk will study GPU compute and memory requirements for LLM inference servers, like vLLM, revealing an analytical relationship between key configuration parameters and performance metrics such as throughput and latency. This novel understanding makes it possible to decide at deployment time an optimal GPU fraction based on the model's characteristics and estimated load. We will demo an open-source controller capable of intercepting inference runtime deployments on Kubernetes to automatically replace requests for whole GPUs with fractional requests using MIG (Multi-Instance GPU) slices, increasing density hence LLM sustainability without sacrificing SLOs.

What if Kubernetes Was a Compiler Target? - David Morrison, Applied Computing Research Labs & Tim Goodwin, UC Santa Cruz

Thursday November 14, 2024 5:25pm - 6:00pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Multi-tier programming is a classic concept from the programming languages community, which provides abstractions for building multiple layers of a distributed application at once. For example, there might be a “presentation” tier that displays a user interface, a “data” tier that interacts with a backing database, and a “business logic” tier that connects the two, all of which can be expressed succinctly as part of the same program and compiled into independently-deployable units. However, Kubernetes has pushed modern software development in the opposite direction: SOA applications are composed of hundreds of independent units of code, often written in different languages and development environments. In this talk we provide an overview of multi-tier programming and how it might apply to software development on Kubernetes. We also present a prototype “Kubernetes compiler” that can turn a monolithic codebase into a distributed application that runs on top of Kubernetes.

Open Source 2.0: The Maintainers' Perspective - William Morgan, Buoyant; Ashley Davis, Venafi; Deepthi Sigireddi, PlanetScale

Friday November 15, 2024 11:00am - 11:35am MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Open source rules the world, and for a good reason: The code is generally better and more secure, bugs are fixed faster, and more. Virtually all modern applications run on it. But the landscape has changed since the early Linux days. Nights and weekends, volunteer-led projects are increasingly rare. Especially in the CNCF landscape, open source is maintained almost exclusively by companies that pursue a strategic goal, and they need a business justification for paying their engineers. So, who writes the code has changed, but the community's expectations — that it should be free — hasn't. While open source will remain free, the companies behind it must find ways to monetize it — whether through support, enterprise editions, or licensing models. Recent changes, including projects like Terraform, Flux, and Linkerd, highlight the need for a paradigm shift. Join this panel to hear from project maintainers why that is and the future they envision.

Faster Containerized LLM Serving via Knowledge Sharing - Junchen Jiang, University of Chicago & Zhou Sun, Mooncake Labs

Friday November 15, 2024 2:00pm - 2:35pm MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 255 EF

Imagine once an LLM learns something from a document, the knowledge can be instantly shared with other LLMs. Unfortunately, today, LLMs must read the same document multiple times, causing a significant slowdown. This session will introduce a new KNOWLEDGE-SHARING system that enables LLMs to share their digested knowledge, in the form of KV caches, so only one LLM needs to process each document. The key challenge is how to store the KV caches cheaply and serve them quickly. Instead of keeping the KV caches of all reusable chunks in GPU/CPU memory, we show a DEMO that with careful implementation on Kubernetes, storing them on cheaper devices is not only economically superior but also delivers significant reductions in LLM serving delay, especially the time to the first token.
