Title:

Kubernetes for Beginners: overview, key concepts and lots of demos

Stream:

App Server and Microservices (3)

Speakers:

Kevin Postreich; Mark Nuttall

Abstract:

Kubernetes is an increasingly popular tool for 'container orchestration' - managing collections of Docker containers. Following on from the 'No charts, all demo' introduction to Docker, we'll cover the basics of Kubernetes: what it does, how it's organised, how to make it work for you. We'll touch on Helm, Ingress, external storage, and then hand over to Kevin Postreich for a demonstration.
