Abstract:
Containers and particularly Docker and Kubernetes have changed dramatically the way workloads are defined, deployed and managed. This presentation will describe the building blocks behind container technologies (cgroups and namespaces), the tooling to create and share container images, and the tools to deploy them at scale using Kubernetes.
It will also cover other tools in the cloud native landscape, including monitoring and logging tools (Prometheus, FluentD, ...), lifecycle management (Flux, ArgoCD) and several other areas.
