Keynote: Creating with Authenticity & Humility: A SPIFFE Origin Story
summary
A concise origin story of SPIFFE: a 2016 Google design doc seeds a community that turns production-grade identity ideas into working code, built on Google’s ALTS (Application Layer Transport Security) and inspired by Plan 9’s factotum, solving ephemeral workload identity by separating attestable identities from apps. Early adopters from Google, Istio, Netflix, Twilio, Salesforce, Twitter and JP Morgan Chase validate the approach; Istio 0.1 surfaces the idea, a CNCF submission follows in Nov 2017, and the project grows into SPIRE-backed production deployments.
