By enabling our developers to do the best job of their life, we are also able to attract and retain great talent!At Intuit, we run several internal events to engage, educate and develop our talents. Hacktoberfest is one such event held every year during the month of October globally across all Intuit sites. Not just the seasoned developers, but even the college graduates who are in the first year of their careers enthusiastically participate and contribute to this month-long effort of contributing to an open-source project of their choice. Experts also lend their hand in mentoring the first-timers during such events enabling the organization to build on our learn-teach-learn culture. The contributors take away exciting rewards and are also recognized company-wide.Portray us the success story of the Argo project in enabling scale with running applications in the public cloud.Argo was born to enable scale with developing and running applications in the public cloud. At Intuit, we have widely adopted the Kubernetes-native workflow engine to run complex workflows which quickly grew as Intuit built Argo and the different projects within Argo, including Argo CD, Argo Rollouts, Argo Events & Argo Workflows, and more.We have our own platform on top of Kubernetes called IKS (Intuit Kubernetes Services). Through IKS, Argo CD & Argo Rollouts have now become the backbone for any microservice deployment strategy at Intuit.Another success story that really showcases what to expect in the future is the Argo Events & Workflows.The Batch Processing Platform (BPP) at Intuit handles scheduling, orchestration & runtimes for all Big Data jobs. Internally, BPP leverages Argo Events & Workflows to provide the scheduling & orchestration capabilities.We're looking to onboard and adopt all of Intuit's scheduled jobs onto BPP and scale up the Argo Workflow usage by at least 17x growth at Intuit in the coming years.What are the future trends of Open-Source technology in 2023?Increased adoption of open-source technology will continue to enhance existing open-source software. As enterprises continue to use Kubernetes and other container orchestration platforms, we expect them to run into issues that were not solved earlier, resulting in new and innovative solutions that will eventually be open-sourced.From a security point of view, we expect enterprises to enhance their screening of open-source software used to avoid vulnerabilities like log4shell, which in turn would make the existing open-source software solutions more secure.Regarding hosting, we expect innovations around API acceleration and edge computing to reduce API latency. Service Mesh providers like ISTIO have simplified their offerings by moving to a shared node agent (Ambient Mesh) instead of injected proxy containers, which opens up huge savings in hosting costs.From a programming point of view, we expect an increase in open-source contributions around programmable proxies like Envoy. We can use WebAssembly (WASM) to inject filters at runtime into Envoy proxy and also Envoy-based Service Mesh solutions like ISTIO. We also expect enterprises to continue exploring solutions around HTTP3.With the release of ChatGPT in Nov 2022, we see a lot of interest in generative AI. We expect much more open-source As enterprises continue to use Kubernetes and other container orchestration platforms, we expect them to run into issues that were not solved earlier, resulting in new and innovative solutions that will eventually be open-sourced
