Once considered the “cool kid” technology of Silicon Valley, Linux containers are in use today in several federal agencies at scale. In fact, open source communities like the Open Container Initiative and Kubernetes accelerated the maturity of the Linux container ecosystem to where government agencies are now using them in production.

Linux containers are technologies that allow you to package and isolate applications with their entire run-time environment — all of the files necessary to run. This makes it easy to move the contained application between environments while retaining full functionality.

We’ll Discuss:

How to get started with containers.
Why agencies are adopting containers and what are the benefits.
The future of container standards and security.
What are the Open Container Initiative and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.
