Docker Store & Oracle DB and Building a Cloud Native Security Service

Schedule

6:30 - 7:00 - Social / Food & Drinks (Stop by Codefresh booth to discuss Docker, containers, CI/CD and for some swag!)

7:00 - 7:45 - Leveraging the Docker Store with Oracle, including the Oracle Database by Jon Reeve and Gerald Venzl

Oracle recently announced availability of its flagship software on the Docker Store at DockerCon. In this talk, we’ll explore what this means for developers, including a demonstration of spinning up images from the Docker store in Oracle Container Cloud Service. We’ll cover a high level summary of Database best practices in Docker, and how to take advantage of the Oracle images on the Docker Store, and look at some of Oracle’s other ongoing work and contribution to the container community CNCF and Kubernetes.

7:45 - 8:30 - Cloud Native Security Service with Docker by Yong Tang

In this talk, we share our experience of building up ActiveTrust Cloud, which is a cloud native security service provided by Infoblox. The service is deployed with Docker, Mesos/Kubernetes, and CoreDNS. It is a customer-facing, multi-tenant, and globally available service that helps customers defending against various Internet attacks.

The global availability of the service is achieved through Anycast so that all customers only need to access one IP address across different regions. Deploying Anycast turns out to be a challenge because of the limitations on certain clouds. We overcome those limitations through containerization of different components with Docker.

We also share our experiences in container orchestration, container networking, load balancing, and service registration & discovery. We use a simplified architecture for container networking, and the service registration & discovery is done through CoreDNS. The overall design have helped our deployed service with improved elasticity, ease of use, and lowered maintenance cost.

8:30 - 9:00 - Networking / Wrap up

We look forward to seeing you there!
