Docker on OpenStack with Kubernetes

Docker has accelerated development of portable services on cloud due to its slick approach to component lifecycle management. But connecting up a bunch of Docker containers as well-behaved aggregate services in the cloud can be more complex and brittle than most Docker users realize. In this talk, we’ll show how you can take a Kubernetes… Continue reading Docker on OpenStack with Kubernetes

Trusted Docker Containers and VMs

Technologies like h/w rooted Trusted Boot and Trusted Pools have been mainstream. These assure that VMs/workloads are launching on servers with demonstrated boot time integrity. However, for Docker containers, following security questions remain open: can Docker platform be trusted, can Docker images be trusted? This presentation introduces Intel’s work to enable the transparent and trusted… Continue reading Trusted Docker Containers and VMs
