LinuxCon+ContainerCon Europe 2016

Cloud native applications are popular these days – applications that run in the cloud reliably und scale almost arbitrarily. They follow three key principles: they are built and composed as micro services. They are packaged and distributed in containers. The containers are executed dynamically in the cloud. Kubernetes is an open-source cluster manager for the automated deployment, scaling and management of cloud native applications. In this hands-on session we will introduce the core concepts of Kubernetes and then show how to build, package and operate a cloud native showcase application on top of Kubernetes step-by-step. Throughout this session we will be using an off-the-shelf MIDI controller to demonstrate and visualize the concepts and to remote control Kubernetes.
