Open Service Broker API - Enabling Microservices in the Enterprise

Explore the Open Service Broker API and its role in enabling microservices in enterprise environments in this 39-minute breakout session from Red Hat Summit 2017. Discover how the Kubernetes service catalog leverages this API to connect applications deployed in Kubernetes with various service brokers in a microservices-based ecosystem. Learn about the benefits for both service users and producers, including ease of use, consistency across different services, and simplified integration. Delve into high-level concepts of the Open Service Broker API and envision a future where app configuration is streamlined and efficient. The session covers barriers to microservice adoption, Kubernetes and OpenShift service catalogs, options for exposing services, and the architecture of the Ansible Service Broker. Gain insights into Ansible Playbook Bundles (APB) and practical examples like downloading a Postgres APB and creating a WebApp.
