Note: Magnum is the way that Docker and Kubernetes are offered as Containers-as-a-Service for OpenStack public or private clouds. If you want a good containers strategy for offering hosted containers to your users, you should learn about Magnum and OpenStack. I am cross posting this event to Docker Los Angeles as a joint meetup with OpenStack-LA. There will be swag!

Details:

Here are the details for the May OpenStack LA Meetup. I’m thrilled to welcome one of our own group members, Adrian Otto, to present the latest on the Magnum Containers project less than a week after the end of the OpenStack Summit in Vancouver. You won’t get any OpenStack information fresher than this!

Presentation Abstract:

Magnum – OpenStack Containers Service

Introducing Magnum a multi-tenant Containers-as-a-Service designed for OpenStack that combines OpenStack, Docker, Swarm, CoreOS, Kubernetes, and Flannel to produce a containers solution that works like other OpenStack services. In this session, we will detail and demonstrate Magnum to show you the features and capabilities, as well as an overview of the software architecture that allows for extending it.
