Bangalore Kubernetes Meetup #4 and update on next community event

Last weekend  we had 4th Kubernetes Meetup in Bangalore at VMware’s office. More than 100 people signed and ~40 people showed  up. The first session was from  Akshay Mathur and Manu Dilip Shah  of A10 Networks who shared their experience on choosing  and using Kubernetes for their  product.

Some participants asked about comparing Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, Mesos Marathon and other container orchestration. We had brief  discussion about I share my last year’s LinuxCon/ContainerCon EU workshop on comparing different  container orchestrators.

We also talked about on what we should do in in the next Kubernetes meetup. We might do hands-on labs.

In the end I also shared the details about the community event we are doing in conjunction with other meetup groups like one we did few weeks back AWS, DevOps and Docker meetup groups.   In April we plan to do similar event  on Microservices and Serverless. Other than previous participants Kubernetes and Mesos & CNCF meetup group would also be joining it.

It was a good meetup. Thanks for the organisers and speakers.
