Tim Buntel & Sunil Mavadia discuss the following in this one-hour webinar: What containers and microservices mean for existing software delivery processes. Important considerations for successful adoption of containers and microservice architectures as part of the enterprise release pipeline. How to ensure that security, compliance and governance standards are maintained when you finally do introduce them.

8. 8
The Software Defined Enterprise
▪ Every business is an IT business
▪ Customers demand that you deliver new features faster
whilst maintaining high levels of quality
▪ Throughput and stability increases through:
− Automation
− Smaller batch sizes
− Shortened cycle times
− Reaction to feedback

9. 9
Con$nuous Delivery
What CD is
▪ Delivering be+er so.ware
faster
▪ Higher quality with lower
risk
▪ Improved visibility (for
governance)
▪ A philosophy and a process
What CD is not
▪ “automaBon for the sake
of automaBon”
▪ "a few more jobs in your CI
server”

10. Microservices
The newest old architecture
pattern

11. 11
What are MSVCs?
A collection of single purpose,
loosely-coupled services, each
running in its own process, and
communicating via lightweight
mechanisms

12. 12
Key Features of Microservices
▪ Domain-Driven Design
▪ Singular responsibility
▪ A well published interface/API
▪ Independent Deploy, Update, Replace Scale
(DURS)
▪ Lightweight Communications

13. 13
Key Benefits of Microservices
▪ Heterogeneity and Polyglotism
▪ Ease of maintenance
▪ Ease of upgrade
▪ Scaling
▪ Fault isolation
▪ Improved communication across teams

14. 14
Impact to Operations
▪ Monitoring – Service monitoring and metrics improves in
production
▪ Better resiliency with scaling and replication.
▪ GOOD DESIGN IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT

15. Docker
No stock photography of a
container ship, please.

16. 16
What is Docker?
An open-source project that
allows you to package an
application with all of its
dependencies into a container

17. 17
Key Features of Docker
▪ Lightweight (compared to VMs)
▪ Easily duplicated and expanded
▪ Fast
▪ Can run on public clouds like AWS
▪ Easy to share

18. 18
Just Another VM?

isolation at the hardware

19. 19
Benefits in Continuous Delivery
▪ Portability
▪ Supported by all major cloud computing providers
▪ Standardized environment
− Consistency across release cycles
− Work with version control
▪ Isolation
− Containers isolated from each other
− Assigned resources (CPU, Memory, disk space)
▪ Clean app removal/uninstall

20. Docker + Microservices
in DevOps

22. The Enterprise Perspective
Not just for startups

24. 24
Enterprises are Complex
▪ Enterprises are complex (compared to single app portfolio
companies, e.g. SaaS vendor)
▪ Cloud software makers typically have a single SaaS app, a
single app stack, a single workload they need to scale on
a homogeneous infrastructure. They are singly focused
and resourced on delivering this one application.
▪ Enterprises have heterogeneous tech stacks, deployed
globally, with on-prem or hybrid more often than pure cloud

25. 25
Release Orchestration
▪ Can be more challenging
▪ Always confusing due to nature of the Enterprise.
− Large, disparate, geographically dispersed teams
− Multi-tiered application infrastructure.
− Functional Silos making it even more difficult to communicate
▪ Less transparency

26. 26
Versioning
▪ Versioning of services is important - forward and backward
compatibility
▪ API versioning
▪ Service versioning
▪ Dependency…but not as much

27. 27
Security Challenges
App Security
▪ Shift Left
▪ Automate
▪ API emphasis
Container Security
▪ Unlike in a VM, the kernel is
shared among all containers
and the host in Docker. One
thin layer of access control
− Denial of service
− Kernel exploits
− privilege escalation
attacks
▪ Getting better

▪ Cultivate internally

29. 29
Start Smart
▪ Can be greenfield, but best in
complex situations
▪ Start with an existing monolith
− New features as microservices
− Isolate them in containers
▪ Start with “safe” projects
▪ Standardize the approach
