Copenhagen .Net User Group

Kubernetes seems to be all the hype these days, but what is it actually all about and what is worth to know as a .NET Developer? For this meetup we have invited Shahid Iqbal over from the UK to give a talk about Kubernetes from the perspective of a .NET developer. He will talk about the core concepts of Kubernetes and give you a tour around this Container orchestrator. In addition to Shahid's talk we will have Ebbe Elsborg from Siteimprove talk about their recent venture into Kubernetes and more importantly why they chose it in the first place. We also have Christian Mikkelsen from CBB/Telenor doing a short presentation about their motivation for going with Kubernetes. Finally, we will have an open discussion about Kubernetes and container orchestrators. So if you have thoughts, ideas, questions or think "is this even relevant to me / my company" then come along for this meetup to get inspiration and input from others. Session abstract ----------------------- Everyone seems to be talking about Kubernetes with companies seemingly tripping over themselves to support or adopt it. In this talk we'll introduce Kubernetes, discuss the key concepts of the platform, it's high level architecture and how to get a Kubernetes cluster up and running in minutes in Azure. We'll talk about and demo deploying .NET applications to Kubernetes and we'll finish with a discussion of the future where you can deploy both legacy and modern .NET applications to the same platform. If you're interested in Kubernetes and you're not a .NET developer this session still has something for you About the Speaker - Shahid Iqbal ---------------------------------------------- Independent consultant, Microsoft MVP Shahid is an independent consultant and Microsoft MVP based in the UK and operating across the globe.
