This won't hurt a bit: Taking Kubernetes to thousands of dental offices - Pedro Oliveira

This talk explores how Dentsply Sirona leverages Kubernetes to enhance the functionality of intraoral scanners across more than 3,000 dental clinics. The speaker highlights the implementation of zero-touch “plug and play” device onboarding that eliminates the need for Kubernetes expertise at remote sites, as well as a GitOps approach for the consistent management of hundreds of devices. Key features such as remote troubleshooting, over-the-air updates, and improved edge-to-cloud workflows contribute to an optimized experience for both patients and clinicians. The session also discusses the use of low-power edge hardware and robust security measures to comply with industry regulations. Pedro Oliveira, a Senior Solutions Architect at Spectro Cloud, shares insights from his extensive experience in Infrastructure programmability, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, and Cloud Native technologies.
