Designing applications with Kubernetes patterns

The way we design, develop and run applications on Cloud Native platforms as Kubernetes differs significantly from the traditional approach. When working with Kubernetes, there are fewer concerns for developers to think about, but at the same time, there are new patterns and practices for solving every-day challenges. In this talk, we will look at a collection of common patterns for developing Cloud Native applications. These patterns encapsulate proven solutions to common problems and help you to prevent reinventing the wheel. We will look at the following pattern categories: - Foundational patterns, describing a number of fundamental principles that containerized applications must comply with in order to become good cloud-native citizens. - Structural patterns, focused on organizing containers in a Pod to satisfy different use cases - Behavioural patterns, exploring the communication mechanisms and interactions between the Pods and the managing platform. - Configuration patterns, focused on customizing and adapting applications with external configurations for different environments. In the end, you will have a solid overview of how common cloud-native problems can be solved with proven Kubernetes patterns.
