NUS-ISS StackUp Workshop: Migrating your Workload to Kubernetes

As you migrate more of your workload to containers, you soon discover that managing them becomes a chore.

Kubernetes is a platform for managing containerized workloads. It is an extremely popular container orchestration platform. Used correctly, Kubernetes can provide a layer of abstraction on top top of specific cloud provider making your cloud infrastructure vendor neutral.

In this demo oriented session, we will see how to manage a few microservice. Some of the topics that the session will be covering includes

• creating pods and deployments
• exposing your deploments as services
• allocating volumes and and making volume claims
• scaling your application horizontally
• performing upgrades

Note: This session will not cover Docker and assumes that you have some familiarity with it.
