Event Details
In this talk, we’ll explore some history of workload isolation from the 1960s to date, take a peek under the hood of popular workload isolation mechanisms(Linux containers, MicroVMs…) and discuss the standards that make them play well across multiple vendors.
Abstract
Isolation, when it comes to humans is a grave punishment. Turns out, for software workloads, this is a highly sought after feature to effectively utilize infrastructure resources(compute/storage/network, etc.) and to lower the cost of operation.
When you throw a container image or a function at a public cloud provider, they are glad to run it for you at affordable rates because of advancements in workload isolation. Similar isolation primitives are what enable you to replicate your application’s entire infrastructure with just a `docker-compose up` command.
