DESCRIPTION:Installing Kubernetes is easy. Operating it across teams\, unde
 r pressure\, at scale that's where most organizations quietly struggle.\n\
 nClusters grow into a mix of manual `kubectl` workflows\, inconsistent net
 work policy\, and operational knowledge nobody wrote down. It works until 
 it doesn't.\n\nThe missing layer is **operational lifecycle management** a
 nd that's exactly what **Juju** was built for. **Juju** brings model-drive
 n operations to Kubernetes: it manages service dependencies\, handles upgr
 ades and integrations\, automates day-2 recovery\, and encodes operational
  knowledge into reusable charms rather than fragile scripts and runbooks. 
 Where most tools stop at deployment\, **Juju** carries the operational sto
 ry forward through the entire application lifecycle.\n\nBut a platform nee
 ds more than lifecycle automation. Delivery needs to be declarative and au
 ditable that's where **Argo CD** fits in\, providing GitOps-based deployme
 nt and drift control. And networking and security policy need to be enforc
 eable at runtime that's where **Cilium** brings kernel-level policy enforc
 ement and observability.\n\nThis session shows how **Juju** serves as the 
 operational backbone of a Kubernetes platform\, with Argo CD and Cilium fi
 lling the delivery and networking layers. Rather than presenting tools in 
 isolation\, the talk demonstrates a cohesive platform engineering model bu
 ilt around Juju's strengths in lifecycle automation and operational relati
 onships.\n\nAttendees will see how **Juju's** charm-based approach solves 
 problems that GitOps alone cannot service integrations\, cross-application
  dependencies\, upgrade orchestration\, and recovery workflows while Argo 
 CD and Cilium handle what they do best.
