Twitter https://twitter.com/#!/BALUG_org ------------------------------ REMINDER: TODAY!: This month, for our 2018-06-19 (3rd Tuesday) BALUG meeting, we are proud to present: Elizabeth K. Joseph: DC/OS Elizabeth K. Joseph[1]: DC/OS (the datacenter operating system)[2] Elizabeth K. Joseph joins us to give an introduction to DC/OS. Tooling around container orchestration has gained a lot of attention recently with various open source tools promising to deliver the framework to manage a highly available container infrastructure. This talk will explore DC/OS (the datacenter operating system) an open-source, distributed operating system based on the Apache Mesos[3] distributed systems kernel. DC/OS manages multiple machines in the cloud or on-premises from a single interface; deploys containers, distributed services, and legacy applications into those machines; and provides networking, service discovery and resource management to keep the services running and communicating with each other. A demo using real streaming will also be given to show how DC/OS can easily use various popular open source big data tools to process data coming in and present it to the user. Bio: Elizabeth K. Joseph spent much of the past decade working as a Linux systems administrator, and today works as a Developer Advocate at Mesosphere[4]. She is the author of Common OpenStack Deployments[5] and The Official Ubuntu Book[6]. 1. https://princessleia.com/ 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datacenter_Operating_System 3. http://mesos.apache.org/ 4. https://mesosphere.com/ 5. https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Joseph-Common-Open-Stac… 6. http://www.informit.com/store/official-ubuntu-book-9780134513423 Please RSVP to rsvp(a)balug.org if you're planning to attend, and also note our revised RSVP policy further below.
