Using Knowledge Graphs to Document Cloud Native Products

Martin Blumbach Ericsson

Vita

Martin Blumbach is the lead architect for automating technical documentation of cloud native software products at Ericsson. He is working with the tool and abstract knowledge representation aspects of the content delivery pipeline. Martin has a long history as system architect of large scale Ericsson products and has over time developed an interest in their information architecture. He enjoys understanding technical concepts and making tacit knowledge explicit.

Cloud-native software products consist of individually lifecycled, frequently released, and flexibly assembled components known as “microservices”.

The Keynote presentation will be an exploration of how technical documentation for such products can be automated. The challenge for automation is that content must be lifecycled per microservice, but presented from the perspective of the product user, who “sees” features and use cases instead of microservices.
