AWS user group meetup container series DXB Dubai n this session, we will explore the popular workload manager and scheduler Kubernetes. Amazon managed kubernetes service, Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) takes care of the heavy-lifting and lets one focus on managing the containerized workloads. EKS, however, still gives you the flexibility and choice where to run, and how to efficiently run your data-plane that hosts your workloads. In this session, we cover what you need to know to get your application up and running with Kubernetes on AWS. We show how Amazon EKS makes deploying Kubernetes on AWS simple and scalable. ⏳ Agenda 1- Review the general Kubernetes architecture and relate to EKS 2- How to set up and provision your Kubernetes cluster using console and eksctl. 3- Discuss the important abstractions that developers use to map their traditional application into any kubernetes platform. 4- How to deploy software efficiently, while sustaining reliable and scalable applications. 5- Deploy your first microservices on EKS 6- EKS possible development deployment workflow

11. Three vouchers to giveaway

12. • Standardized packaging for software and
dependencies
• Isolate apps from each other
• Share the same host OS kernel
• Utilizes Linux Kernel features (e.g.
namespace, cgroups, apparmor, selinux)
• Microsoft have Windows Native Containers
• Lightweight application virtualization
• Consolidate 100s of applications per host
compared to 10s per vm
Review: containers?
Build, distribute, and run applications almost anywhere

16. WhatIsKubernetes?
● Greek for "helmsman",
● The kernel of distributed systems
● Linux of the cloud!
● A platform and container orchestration tool for automating
deployment, scaling, and operations of application containers.
● Kubernetes supports Docker, Containerd, CRI-O, Kata
containers (formerly clear and hyper) and Virtlet among others
● History of over 15 years from Google Borg, +7 years since its
OSS inception

25. Kubernetes’ High-Level Architecture Overview

28. EKS
• Certified Kubernetes distribution
• OSS components available as EKS-Distribution
• Can be run in Cloud or on-prem
• Integrates well with AWS services for AWS customers
• Enables Hybrid, and multi cloud workloads
• High availability, security, resilience, and Fault tolerance "across
AZs"
• Undifferentiated heavy lifting

29. Why EKS?
- CNCF certified distribution
- can enable Hybrid, and multi cloud workloads
- Integrates well with AWS managed services model
- HA and Fault tolerance "across AZs"
- Fully managed control plane ( self-healing, upgrades, patching)

39. Why Fargate?
• Serverless wins: Focus on application
• Scalability out of the box: clusters scales with application
• Reduce operations and day-2 overhead:
• Updates and patching for infra and cluster
• Still need to take care of image updates
• Better security isolation
• Cost efficient
