Developing and deploying are two activities that can and should easily embrace innovation. This is where the Presslabs Stack comes in—it’s the first open-source serverless hosting platform that bridges two major technologies, WordPress and Kubernetes, and ultimately our contribution to advancing the WordPress infrastructure and operations.
Calin will first make a hands-on tour of the Stack and introduce the productivity benefits it brings: developer-focused, best practices bundle, scaling, security. He will also address the importance of ensuring a consistent behavior both locally and in production environments by using Kubernetes as a common denominator between the two.
Then he will walk the participants through the process of installing the Stack locally and pushing the changes to a Production Stack. Calin will present healthy development practices that are baked in the Stack and can be successfully adopted in the WordPress ecosystem. These practices include source code versioning, using a dependency manager like Composer or having a clear deployment pipeline.
