Hi all,

Attached is the PDF containing the slides used at Phreaknic19 Future of
Linux session last night to talk about containers and clouds. There was
a lot of good discussion around containers and security - could be an
interesting future NLUG presentation?

I enjoyed the panel with Dagmar and Howard, and thanks to Ben Hicks for
setting everything up!

Wesley didn't see Michael Chaney's presentation about Jailed servers running in BSD many ages ago. We have discussed these precursors to containers and their operations advantages to other virtual style implementations. Now, I bring up this point not to discourage the topic as containers have come a long way since those jailed systems came to practice. Yes, the point Wesley made in his presentation about the impact of containers versus virtual guests is important. How many layers, how many copies of what has to be maintained and supported. Some of us, okay I, wince at the thought of having an operating system running to support having an operating system to support a java or erlang virtual environment.

The slides can't reflect Dagmar's comments on the practical effects of the production environment. My experience with "update constipation" completely echoes what Dagmar reports - nobody wants to touch anything for fear it might break (and that "they" might have to fix). This is the way we manage our highways - we wait until the bridges fall down and then slap dash a fix. Okay, off the soap box.
