      Container Orchestration Moves Forward at Cloud Native Computing Event

      BERLIN—The CloudNativeCon + KubeCon Europe 2017 event held here March 29-30 brought together vendors, developers and users interested in the evolving space that defines itself as cloud native computing. The big news out of the event was the formal approval of Docker’s containerd runtime and CoreOS’ rkt (pronounced “rocket”) container runtime as Cloud Native Computing Foundation projects. There was also a lot of talk about security, with multiple sessions providing users with guidance on what to do and what not to do in order to deploy containers securely. In this slide show, eWEEK looks at some of the highlights of the CloudNativeCon + KubeCon Europe 2017 event.
