Building the Enterprise Cloud with Openstack, Docker, Kubernetes, and CoreOS

Openstack, Docker, Kubernetes, and CoreOS can provide a foundation for infrastructure provisioning and application deployment in the enterprise. Openstack as a private cloud IaaS solution, is successfully driving infrastructure automation, and maximizing the utilization of compute, network and storage systems. Enterprises are also starting to use containers to manage their application lifecycle. Containers make applications… Continue reading Building the Enterprise Cloud with Openstack, Docker, Kubernetes, and CoreOS

Keeping OpenStack storage trendy with Ceph and containers

The conventional approach to deploying applications on OpenStack uses virtual machines (usually KVM) backed by block devices (usually Ceph RBD). As interest increases in container-based application deployment models like Docker, it is worth looking at what alternatives exist for combining compute and storage (both shared and non-shared). Mapping RBD block devices directly to host kernels… Continue reading Keeping OpenStack storage trendy with Ceph and containers

Docker Networking in OpenStack: What you need to know now.

Docker had a breakout year in 2014 with more than 100M downloads and its momentum continues into this year. While virtualization technology abstracts away the hardware, Docker instead abstracts away the OS. While this seems like an incremental improvement, this design paradigm of bringing virtualization one layer closer has potentially tremendous ramifications. But what new… Continue reading Docker Networking in OpenStack: What you need to know now.

Big Data Analytics and Docker: The Thrilla in Manila

Docker containers are an ideal platform for the Big Data analytics use case because of their unique security and performance advantages. Big Data work loads typically use distributed file systems to provide shared access to both input and output data sets. OpenStack Manila is an excellent way to manage distributed file systems in the Cloud… Continue reading Big Data Analytics and Docker: The Thrilla in Manila
