Kubernetes Day India 2019

Data-centric, edge-distributed workloads of the future demand greater computing performance, speed, security, storage, networking and more. Cloud native technologies—containers and container orchestration engines, like Kubernetes—must harness diverse, specialized hardware to unlock new use cases, like artificial intelligence and deep learning. We will share how Intel is collaborating across the cloud native community and ecosystem to enhance Kubernetes and the container ecosystem to help pave the way for tomorrow.

Quick talk/demo about how to use custom metrics in combination with the Kubernetes Horizontal Pod Autoscaler(HPA) to autoscale an application. Virtual nodes (virtual-kubelet)let you scale quickly and easily run Kubernetes pods on Container Instances where you'll pay only for the container instance runtime. Demo application using ServiceMonitor for Prometheus, a HPA, and a custom container that will count the instances of the application and expose them to Prometheus. Finally, Grafana dashboard to view the metrics in real-time.

Modern applications are often composed of multiple microservices that each perform a specific function. AWS App Mesh makes it easy to monitor and control microservices running on AWS. App Mesh standardizes how your microservices communicate, giving you end-to-end visibility and helping to ensure high-availability for your applications. Come and learn about AWS App mesh.
