Containers - where we came from and where the future’s taking us
The past ten years has seen a dramatic revolution in how software is developer, packaged, and run. While vast improvements have been made, there's still a lot of opportunity ahead. In this talk, we'll recap this rising abstraction and talk about where the future might take us.
Bettering the Kubernetes Development Experience
Modern apps are becoming increasingly complex and difficult to develop locally. Where once was a monolithic application with a database, there are now many microservices, message queues, and integrations with various third party services. In this talk, we'll dive into strategies and demos to bridge local and remote and what platform engineers need to keep in mind while designing their platforms.
All things Docker Compose!
Once you start Docker Compose, you can simply git clone and docker compose up and start working on your project... regardless of the language, stack, or framework being used! But, just as any tool, it takes some time to learn how to maximize its value and keep up with what's new.
In this hands-on session, we're going to take an existing non-containerized application, containerize it, and then set it up to use Docker Compose. We'll go through several Compose best practices, show some of the latest Dockerfile enhancements, and dive into some of the new features, such as Compose Watch! By the end, you should have the confidence to try it out on one of your own projects. And, who knows? There might be some special peeks on other fun things Docker is working on too!
