#43: Containers, Docker, Kubernetes and Serverless - explaining Serverless

Over the current few episodes I am introducing a number of technologies from modern Software Delivery. These are: Containers Docker Kubernetes And Serverless There are "hot" technologies within Software Development at the moment. They are helping Software Teams: Get Better ROI when spending on Computer Servers Improving the speed to market Allowing for more complex and ambitious solutions These are technologies that your Development Team may want to use or may even be using. In episode 40, I explained Virtualisation; a technology that makes the other possible. In episode 41, I introduced Containers and the Docker Container format - a technology that allow us to achieve greater ROI from our physical servers, improves our developer productivity and increase access to the tools they need. In episode 42, I introduced Container Orchestrators and Kubernetes; a technology for running complex containers based solutions; helping us to: Ensuring consistent load across our physical machines - giving better ROI through higher density      usage Starting and stopping containers based on load - again giving better density and being more      resilience to inconsistent workloads Self healing to avoid costly and embarrassing outages Proving a platform to allow multiple containers to operate as single system And automating many, previously, manual tasks In this episode I will move onto the Serverless technology. I will also close out this little series on "hot" technologies, by talking about them in the Cloud and the future of these technologies as I foresee it.
