3. What is Containerization?
© 2016 Kontena, Inc.
Light-weight OS level sandboxing of applications
Runs multiple isolated apps on single host without hypervisor
Currently, the hottest trend in datacenter innovation
Next step for optimizing computing resources post VMs
Build and configure once, run anywhere
Ideal for DevOps and modern micro-service architectures
Significant buy-in from both start-ups and large vendors
Packaged Software: MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, NodeJS…
OS Vendors: Microsoft, Apple, Red Hat, SUSE, CoreOS...
Clouds: Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Rackspace, Google...
Major Users: Netflix, Paypal, eBay, Google, Spotify...

4. Why Containers?
© 2015 Kontena, Inc.
Containers provide a more efficient use of Resources:: Eliminates Hypervisor reducing virtualization overhead
while still allowing separation and isolation of multiple tasks on one host without relying on a separate OS,
saving huge amount of HW resources compared to bulky VMs which emulate physical servers complete with
OS
Allows Easy Application Portability between different hosts within DCs, DC to DC/ DC to Cloud (Private,
Public, Hybrid) / Cloud to Cloud

5. What is Kontena?
© 2015 Kontena, Inc.
Open Source container & micro services
platform built to maximize developer
happiness. Works on any cloud, easy to
setup, simple to use.

8. How does it work?
Kontena Grid
A number of physical or virtual machines – Kontena Nodes –
create a Kontena Grid. The nodes may be located anywhere;
in single data center, different AZs or different cloud
providers.
Overlay Network
Kontena will automatically create an overlay network
powered by Weave and connect all nodes of a Grid. Overlay
network enable services to communicate with each other in
multi-host, multi-AZ environment.
Service Discovery
Kontena has a built-in service discovery powered by etcd. It
is used to automatically assign DNS addresses for any
services running in Kontena. It is also used by Kontena’s
load balancer for zero-downtime operation.
Orchestration
Kontena’s orchestrator is distributing, running and
monitoring all Kontena Services in a Grid. Services may be
stateless or stateful, and they are automatically distributed
across Nodes in a Grid.
Containerized Workloads
With Kontena, all containerized workloads are described as
Services. Kontena Service is composed of containers based
on the same image file. Services may be scaled and linked
together to create complex elastic apps.
OS
Docker
Kontena Nodes & Agent
Kontena Agent may be installed to any
machine capable of running Docker. It
is running as a privileged container in a
machine.
Kontena Master
Kontena Master is orchestrating the
entire Kontena system. It provides
APIs used by Kontena CLI, Web UI
and third party integrations.
Kontena Master may be installed as
high-availability setup if needed.

9. All Batteries Included!
Built-In Image Registry
Sometimes projects can not use publicly hosted
container image registries like DockerHub.
Kontena comes with built-in container image
registry providing private and secure solution.
Built-In VPN Access
All containers are run inside a virtual private
network by default. Nothing is exposed to
Internet unless explicitly defined. With
Kontena’s built-in VPN access developers can
securely access those resources.
Built-In Load Balancer
Kontena comes with built-in load balancer.
Based on Haproxy. It features fully automatic,
zero-downtime operation due to deep integration
with Kontena’s service discovery and
orchestration technology.
Aggregated Stats & Logs
Kontena provides real-time log and statistics
streams containers. The streams may be grouped
and aggregated to produce service level streams.
This allows easy viewing of logs and statistics
for your application CPU, memory, disk and
network usage.
User Management with Audit Trail
All events and actions performed through
Kontena CLI or APIs are logged into audit trail.
Combined with users and access control, the
audit trail support makes Kontena a reliable and
secure solution for any enterprise deployments.
Built-In Secrets Management
When your application requires access to APIs or
databases, you'll often need to use secrets such as
passwords and access tokens for authenticating
the access. Kontena Vault is a secure key/value
storage that can be used to manage secrets in
Kontena.

10. “Includes all the s**t you don’t want to
implement by yourself”

11. Works on any Infrastructure
© 2015 Kontena, Inc.
Kontena works on any public cloud or in your own private datacenter; hybrid environment,
virtualized or bare metal.
