Explore the container revolution and its impact on software development and deployment in this conference talk from the International PHP Conference. Delve into the history of container technology, understand its significance beyond Docker, and learn how containers address common deployment challenges. Discover the benefits of containerization, including improved security, scalability, and efficiency. Examine concepts like Linux namespaces, continuous delivery, and infrastructure as code. Gain insights into how container stacks and technologies like Kubernetes are reshaping cloud hosting. Understand how embracing containers can revolutionize software architecture, operations, monitoring, and debugging processes, ultimately leading to more efficient software delivery.

Syllabus

Intro
a brief history about containers
security goods are not visible from outside
containers in software
Linux namespaces
Docker as a "better virtual machine"?
what was the problem again?
a lot of work doesn't scale takes too long high failure rate deployment = downtime high mean time to recovery
Normalization
Continuous Delivery
Infrastructure as Code
This is all focussed on infrastructure, not the application!
a container stack by itself is just a stack of containers
Kubernetes will become for cloud hosting what Linux is for servers.
Containers can make the process of delivering software more efficient
will change the way you think about software architecture, operations, deployment, monitoring, debugging, ...
