Vendor Talk: CoreOS: Building the Layers of the Scalable Cluster for Containers
Barak Michener, CoreOS
One of the strengths of containerization is the way it allows us to consider how to build our applications for scale. Turning a cluster of machines into a single, highly-available computer is the end goal of a containerized world.
However, there are many distributed systems problems along the way!
Barak will discuss the layers that tend to constitute a cluster (from the hardware up) and talk about the multiple open-source projects at CoreOS that build these layers through small, composable utilities.
Barak Michener is a backend Go developer working for CoreOS and lead maintainer of Cayley, an open source graph database. Barak previously worked at Google through the acquisition of Metaweb. At Metaweb he focused on the graph database behind freebase.com. While at Google he worked on structured search using structured data to improve Google Search after some time focusing on music research and multi-model machine learning algorithms. He is inspired by the straightforward energy in New York City.
