Containers have been fairly mainstream for years. And though their flexibility meets the needs of most development teams, some of us are still hesitant to start using them. Part of that hesitation may come from not understanding what it takes to manage and monitor containers. In this online workshop recording, Sylvia Fronczak (Software Engineer) will cover the basics of CaaS and CaaS providers. She'll give an intro to key concepts and provide some hands-on examples. And, she'll provide some next steps for getting started with monitoring containers.

3. Containers as a Service

4. As-A-Service Evolution
IaaS PaaS
CaaS

5. Infrastructure As A Service
u Base Infrastructure Solution
u Virtualized Computing in the Cloud
u Access, Monitor, Manage
Runtime
Applications
Container Orchestration

6. Containers As A Service
u Container Delivery Solution
u More flexibility than PaaS
u Build, Ship, Run

9. Containers
u Isolate applications
u Self-contained
u Run anywhere
u Shared host O/S, kernel
Container Container Container
Container Engine

Virtual Machine/Server

10. Containers vs VMs
Containers
u Shared O/S
u Lightweight
u Fast Boot Time
u Great for microservices, and small
processes
VMS
u Requires own O/S
u Heavyweight
u Slower Boot Time
u Great for intensive applications

11. Container Orchestration
u Resource Management
u Lifecycle management
u Provisioning/Deployment
u Configuration
u Load Balancing
u Monitoring
u Scaling, Rolling Upgrades
u Service Registry, Service Discovery

12. Container Infrastructure
u Load Balancing
u Networking
u Storage Management
u Image Repository Management
u Configuration Management

13. Demo
u Docker
u Integration with Kubernetes

14. Demo

15. Monitoring
u Monitoring Agents
u Monitor Application and Container Lifecycles
u Alerting
u Logging

16. Looking at the
Infrastructure
with Scalyr

17. Kubernetes adds
Infrastructure to your
Monitoring concerns

18. Kubernetes in Production
TL; DR:
u Abstractions make life “simpler”
u Abstractions make digging harder.

19. Orchestration
Where did my changesget deployed?
Is Kubernetes broken?
What did K8s just do?
Did I get everythingI expected to?
u Containers change the way we develop,
deploy, and maintain apps
u Account for ephemeral containers
u Kubernetes is container orchestration at large

20. Monitor each layer explicitly
u Collect logs and monitor at each layer
u Monitor your orchestrated environment
u Containers
