A Fork to Reckon With: Minimizing Friction When Adopting Open Source Software

This conference talk explores strategies for enterprises to adopt open source software (OSS) while meeting internal security and regulatory requirements. Learn about four key patterns for "internalizing" external open source projects: upstream contribution, forking, wrapping, and mutation. The speakers from Capital One share practical case studies featuring popular projects like Kubeflow, Argo Workflows, and Dask, demonstrating how each approach can be implemented. Discover the particular advantages of using Kubernetes mutating admission control with Kyverno when adopting open source solutions. Gain concrete tools and methodologies to streamline OSS adoption in enterprise environments with elevated security and compliance needs, minimizing friction in the process.
