Kubernetes has become the de-facto orchestrator for containers and now is the best way to start engaging with portable distributed computing. This workshop is for software application developers who want to understand what Kubernetes is all about and how it works. It can be a seemingly complex ecosystem full of terms, architectures, and misinformation. We will break it down so you have a solid understanding of how it works so you can start writing applications that run on this distributed platform.
We will cover many topics such as:

Jonathan is an independent software architect with a concentration on helping others unpack the riches in the cloud native and Kubernetes ecosystems.
Jonathan is halfway into his second score of engineering commercial software, driven by his desire to design helpful software to move us forward. His applications began with laboratory instrument software and managing its data. Jonathan was enticed by the advent of object-oriented design to develop personal banking software. Banking soon turned to the internet, and enterprise applications took off. Java exploded onto the scene, and since then he has inhabited that ecosystem. At 454 Life Sciences and Roche Diagnostics, Jonathan returned to laboratory software and leveraged Java-based state machines and enterprise services to manage the terabytes of data flowing out of DNA sequencing instruments. Then as a hands-on architect at Thermo Fisher Scientific, he applied the advantages of microservices, containers, and Kubernetes to their laboratory management platform.
