Resuming Pods After Spot Instance Shutdown - Kubernetes Controller for Container Migration

Explore a 36-minute conference talk by Muvaffak Onuş from QA Wolf, presented at a CNCF event, focusing on maintaining container continuity when using spot instances in Kubernetes. Learn about a custom-built Kubernetes controller that orchestrates container snapshots and recovery, allowing for near zero-downtime migration when spot instances shut down. Discover how this solution addresses the challenges of using cost-effective spot instances for long-running jobs like automated QA tests and data processing pipelines. Gain insights into the underlying mechanisms, potential cost savings, and see a practical demonstration of this innovative approach to container resilience in cloud-native environments.
