VMs to Containers to Kubernetes

By Riedwaan Bassadien

Elevator Pitch

Most folks know linux and may even have deployed a container on Linux. Let’s excite them to take if further. Let’s take them on a quick journey to show them to power of Linux Containers and Kubernetes! For good measure, let’s throw in some AI as well! This could be a workshop as well.

Description

This talk is aimed at getting you excited about the awesome world that is Docker and Kubernetes. Go from an app on VMs to Docker to Kubernetes in the Cloud. For good measure, let’s add some cool AI to our project.

Notes

I’ve presented this talk at the azure global bootcamp. Was great. Steps are: 1. Show basic python flask or Kotlin apps running on Linux. 2. Explain and quickly containerize these apps. 3. Push work to docker Hub or private registry. 3. Deploy to Kubernetes on Azure. Include AI container to expand scope and show agility. 4. Show kubernetes scalability and speed. 5. Wrap up the story and showcase all they need in GitHub. The talk is 100% demo and storytelling.
