17:45 - 18:30 Introduction to Container Management on AWS, by Yaniv Donenfeld, Business Development Manager, AWS

Managing and scaling hundreds of containers is a challenging task. A container management solution takes care of these challenges for you, allowing you to focus on developing your application. In this session, we cover the role and tasks of a container management solution and we analyze how different customers leveraged orchestration platforms to mitigate those challenges. We’ll also discuss when people tend to use each of the four common container management solutions - Amazon EC2 Container Service, Kubernetes, Docker for AWS, and Apache Mesos.
