Kubernetes from Scratch for Neuroscientific Research

Carolina Lindqvist and Daniel Fernández from EPFL's Blue Brain Project detail their journey building a Kubernetes cluster from scratch for neuroscientific research. They discuss the challenges, use cases, and implementation details of transitioning from OpenShift to vanilla Kubernetes, emphasizing automation, multi-tenancy, and the benefits of a GitOps approach. The talk aims to lower the barrier to entry for similar organizations by providing a blueprint for an on-premise cluster setup.
