Build Your Modern, Portable PaaS Platforms with Containers and Kubernetes

Overview

Explore the evolution of modern Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) platforms in this 41-minute conference talk by Craig McLuckie, Product Manager at Google. Discover how Linux application container technologies like Docker and container orchestrators like Kubernetes have revolutionized the deployment and management of composite applications. Learn about emerging abstractions in application deployment and management, and understand the benefits these bring to developers building modern, distributed applications. Delve into topics such as cloud-native computing, the deconstruction of V1 PaaS, Docker containers, the Kubernetes project, and its core concepts including Pods, Volumes, and Replication Controllers. Gain insights into the future of Kubernetes, open PaaS, and specialization in the context of building portable, efficient, and scalable cloud computing solutions.
