Keynote: A Journey to a Centralized, Globally Distributed Platform – Katie Gamanji
summary
Condé Nast International claims a centralized, globally distributed platform running 9 Kubernetes clusters across five regions (three EU, US, APAC, two China) serving 75M pageviews/month after 11 site launches and planning migration of 34 more. Architecture uses Fastly CDN fronting requests, a Traffic ingress, and a multi-tenant global web app; clusters deploy via Tectonic self-hosted Kubernetes on AWS with Terraform for infra, Helm charts and a Docker registry plus Helm + CircleCI pipelines. Remaining pains: upgrades, China/Russia deployment limits, and developer experience.
