#43: Containers, Docker, Kubernetes and Serverless - explaining Serverless

#43: Containers, Docker, Kubernetes and Serverless - explaining Serverless

Over the current few episodes I am introducing a number of technologies from modern Software Delivery.

These are:

  • Containers
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • And Serverless

There are "hot" technologies within Software Development at the moment.

They are helping Software Teams:

  • Get Better ROI when spending on Computer Servers
  • Improving the speed to market
  • Allowing for more complex and ambitious solutions

These are technologies that your Development Team may want to use or may even be using.

In episode 40, I explained Virtualisation; a technology that makes the other possible.

In episode 41, I introduced Containers and the Docker Container format - a technology that allow us to achieve greater ROI from our physical servers, improves our developer productivity and increase access to the tools they need.

In episode 42, I introduced Container Orchestrators and Kubernetes; a technology for running complex containers based solutions; helping us to:

  • Ensuring consistent load across our physical machines - giving better ROI through higher density usage
  • Starting and stopping containers based on load - again giving better density and being more resilience to inconsistent workloads
  • Self healing to avoid costly and embarrassing outages
  • Proving a platform to allow multiple containers to operate as single system
  • And automating many, previously, manual tasks

In this episode I will move onto the Serverless technology.

I will also close out this little series on "hot" technologies, by talking about them in the Cloud and the future of these technologies as I foresee it.
