This document discusses how to unblock environments by making them more dynamic through containerization, infrastructure as code, and container orchestration with Kubernetes. Static environments reduce speed to production and increase costs due to specialization requirements. Dynamic environments using containers, open source software, and orchestration allow environments to be created and destroyed on demand, scaling as needed. Namespaces and clusters in Kubernetes provide separation of environments for development, testing, and production.

 Containerization(e.g. Docker)
 Infrastructureon Demand (e.g. DockerHub, Kubernetes Apps)
 Open Source Software (e.g. Ubuntu,SoapUI,MySQL, Netflix,Kubernetes)
 ContainerOrchestration(e.g. Kubernetes, Swarm, Mesos)
 Service Virtualization

Containers 101
 Dockerfile = Define your App and Dependencies
 Docker image = Create a runnable instance
 DockerHub = Share your instance with others
 Kubernetes = Run your containers reliably
 GKE, AKS, Windows, Linux = Run your containers anywhere
Define,Build and Run AnywhereReliably

Environments = Namespaces
 Deploy containers to namespaceslike DEV, QA, UAT….
 Containers contain dependencies and apps within the definition and it doesn’t leak
 Long running apps are called deployments,short running activities are called jobs
 Entire environment can be created and destroyed

Next Steps
 Containerize assetsand dependencies
 Adopt Kubernetes for environments= simplify management / separatedependencies
 Leverage OpenAPI / API Contract first design = virts / test automation
