Join Nico to get an overview on how to run your Microservices on-premises as well as in the Cloud in a production ready environment. This session will cover how to run, manage and orchestrate your Containers using IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service (IKS) as well as IBM Cloud Private (ICP). You will get useful insights, tips and live demos of both solutions. Nico will also talk about tools which will help you to manage and secure your environment. Join his sessions and you will be ready to run your own Microservices using IKS and ICP!

docker run -d my-microservice

5. But wait, what’s about...
• Container Orchestration
• High availability
• Scalability
• Support, Updates
• Security
• Monitoring, Metrics
• Log management
• Tools, Services, Integrations
5

6. And there is even more...
• there are different Container runtimes
– Docker, containerd, rkt, ...
• and different Orchestrators
– Swarm, Kubernetes, Nomad, ...
• and even more tools/systems integrating with them
– Openshift, Apache Mesos, DC/OS, Rancher, IKS, AKS, GKE, EKS (just to mention
some of them)

7. Managed solution vs. own installation
• this does not mean Cloud vs. on-premises!
• pro managed solution
– ready to go
– less complicated
– support
– easy updates
– pre installed services like Monitoring, Registry, Security, GUI, ...
• pro own installation
– customizable on your needs
– integrate tools/services you need
7

8. A summary
• Kubernetes is de facto the standard
• I recommend (for most use-cases) to use a managed solution in
production
– provider will manage your cluster or provide setups/updates
– you can focus on your apps
• Bootstrap at least one Cluster to understand the underlying technology
