Containerizing a REST API and Kubernetes (Google Container Management System)

Ashley Roach from Cisco will walk us through deploying to Kubernetes and share some of his personal experiences building containerized microservices / REST APIs.

Kubernetes (http://kubernetes.io/docs/whatisk8s) is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.

It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. Kubernetes builds upon 15 years of experience of running production workloads at Google (http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2898444), combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
