About Slurm and plans for Slurm-2

We planned Slurm for 30 places. Then they added another 20, and still, after 10 days, the places ran out. Once the topic is so popular, in the fall we will have Slurm-2, where there will be a repetition of the Slurm-1 program and an advanced course. There will be no more seats, so there is a chance that they will quickly run out again. If you leave a request on the site , you will receive a newsletter when we open the sale of tickets.

What will be on Slurm

The list of lectures you see in the schedule of broadcasts.
In addition to them, there will be practice and 5 supporting webinars:

- Docker / Ansible
- Kubernetes
- Helm
- Monitoring and logging
- CI / CD

The practice takes place on servers that are allocated by Southbridge partner and sponsor Slurm: Selectel. No minicubes, we raise, configure and check the failover of clusters on live servers.

Selectel is a Russian IT infrastructure provider. When Southbridge clients need a server in the country, we offer Selectel. Now there are 58 projects running on their servers, which we support.

In addition to classes on Slurme will be a lot of communication on the sidelines. Intensive has not yet begun, and in the telegram group, administration is already being discussed and they are planning to set up a small hackathon on the spot.

Why Southbridge decided to organize Slurm

There are more and more orders for k8s, and we decided to organize internal training so that the best experts on the implementation of Couberntes would pass on knowledge to everyone else. Since Southbridge administrators live throughout the country, they need to be assembled in one place, rent a hotel, a conference room, that's all. So we came to the idea of ​​an “open internal event”, where our administrators and paid participants are involved.

Why is the intensive is called Slurm, read our PB .

Where is Slurm located

Due to the fact that we changed the number of places, Slurm will pass immediately in 2 hotels: Volkov-Skye and Mishkin Gora near Serpukhov (2.5 km, 5 minutes drive). Between the hotels will run a minibus. For Slurm-2, we will immediately provide for one large hotel.

For those who will have strength in the evening, there are bicycles, sports grounds, a pool, a sauna, billiards, aero-hockey, darts and other light board games.

On Friday morning on the Southbridge blog I will post a link to the broadcast
