Register today for the October 17th webinar featuring Jason McGee and Briana Frank.

Kubernetes, through its powerful declarative configurations model, enables high levels of automation in running container-based applications. DevOps teams create configuration files that tell Kubernetes exactly how to deploy and maintain an application in its container pods on a cluster

Allow us to demonstrate.

A series of five demos

To make it fun, we’ve programmed a fleet of drones to listen to Kubernetes and take action based on what happens to the app pods in a cluster.

In a series of five demos, you’ll see configuration files created and modified to deploy app pods, to scale and recover the pods, and to assign pods to worker nodes based on rules. You’ll also see how to configure an Istio service mesh to do canary testing of a new version of an app.

In each case, to visualize the results and timing of app config changes, drones will appropriately take-off, maneuver, hover, and land.
