OpenStack Summit May 2015 Vancouver

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 demands do Docker containers put on your virtual network infrastructure?

 

Learn how you bring secure, scalable, available and open software defined networking to Docker containers managed by OpenStack. This session will cover how Docker virtual networks function, how to plumb them into the virtual network fabric and reliably assign information such as IP addresses, virtual interfaces and more. In addition, this session will also cover how to securely wrap Docker containers using security policies and encryption.
