TPDP033: Containers, Virtual Machines, and Orchestration, Part 1

In this episode I'm joined by Marek Sadowski from IBM, and we're bringing DevOps into focus. More particularly, we're focusing on virtual machines, containers, and orchestrating them with tools like Kubernetes and RedHat OpenShift. If you've ever had to deploy an application, you've probably asked yourself, what do I choose for deployment? Do I build my own hardware, use a virtual machine, or do I look into containers? What happens when your one application turns into one hundred applications? How do you manage those applications without bringing yourself to madness? Do you choose something like Kubernetes, or do you explore a managed solution like OpenShift? This is a two part episode with this particular episode focusing on containers, virtual machines, and Kubernetes. The next episode in the series takes a spin at comparing Kubernetes to solutions like OpenShift for orchestration. A brief writeup to this episode can be found via
