Kubernetes Koncepts - 1/2 Day Hands On Workshop

Kubernetes has become the de-facto orchestrator for containers and now is the best way to start engaging with portable distributed computing. This workshop is for software application developers who want to understand what Kubernetes is all about and how it works. It can be a seemingly complex ecosystem full of terms, architectures, and misinformation. We will break it down so you have a solid understanding of how it works so you can start writing applications that run on this distributed platform.

We will cover many topics such as:

  • Rise of Kubernetes and containers
  • Terms and architecture
  • What does it give me?
  • App Patterns on Kubernetes
  • Building, deploying, serving, and observing apps on Kubernetes.
  • Hands on labs

About Jonathan Johnson

Jonathan Johnson is an independent software architect with a concentration on helping others unpack the riches in the cloud native and Kubernetes ecosystems.

For 30 years Jonathan has been designing useful software to move businesses forward. His career began creating laboratory instrument software and throughout the years, his focus has been moving with industry advances benefitting from Moore’s Law. He was enticed by the advent of object-oriented design and applied it to financial software. As banking moved to the internet, enterprise applications took off and Java exploded onto the scene. Since then, he has inhabited that ecosystem. After a few years, he returned to laboratory software and leveraged Java-based state machines and enterprise services to manage the terabytes of data flowing out of DNA sequencing instruments. As a hands-on architect, he applied the advantages of microservices, containers, and Kubernetes with a laboratory management platform.

Today he enjoys sharing his experience with peers. He provides perspective on ways to modernize application architectures while adhering to the fundamentals of modularity - high cohesion and low coupling.microservices, containers, and Kubernetes to their laboratory management platform.
