Open Source Summit 2017 – a week in Pragues
The Adaltas crew went to the Open Source Summit 2017 as well as the Mesos Summit 2017 held in Pragues about 3 weeks back. On this occasion, we compiled a series of articles about the conferences that have marked us most.
Over the 3-day period of the Open Source Summit, there is no doubt that Kubernetes was the star of the various talks, becoming the de-facto standard for container orchestration. The conference followed its integration announcement by Mesos-based DC/OS in september as well as the one of Docker in october.
With Kurbenetes comes a rich and growing ecosystem, a few of them hosted under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Here are a few:
- Kubernetes – orchestration
- Prometheus – monitoring
- Linkerd – Service Mesh
- gRPC – Remote Procedure Call
Overall, we had a wonderful time in Pragues and we wish to thank the organizers as well as the speaker for sharing their talent. Now, let’s get to the articles.
