    Self-paced Lab: Simplify Kubernetes Network Microsegmentation with Otterize

    In this track, you will discover how Otterize automates the lifecycle of Kubernetes Network Policies to protect microservices. You will deploy an application relying on message streaming to process and compute data. The "Shifumi" or rock-paper-scissors game supports multiple sessions of 2-player games where choices are written to Kafka, and the server processes these choices to compute game statistics and determine results. Your task is to secure this application, making sure only the required components can communicate with each other.

    Self-paced Lab: Deploying and Securing gRPC Microservices with PostgreSQL using Otterize and ArgoCD

    In this track, you will discover how Otterize automates network security and credential management for Kubernetes microservices. You will deploy the Otter Detective Agency (O.D.A.) app, a gRPC-based microservices application simulating a detective agency solving cases. The app uses PostgreSQL as a shared database for all services. Your task is to deploy and secure this application by using ArgoCD and Otterize to generate and enforce Kubernetes Network Policies and manage PostgreSQL credentials securely. By the end, you will ensure that only the required components can communicate and access the database with appropriate permissions, enhancing the application's overall security.
