  • VMware Harbor as a Rancher catalog entry

    calendar Jan 9, 2017 · 22 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    In the last few months I have been looking at Rancher (an open source container management product) as a way to learn more about Docker containers and understand better the ecosystem around them. One of the things that appealed me about Rancher is the notion of an extensible catalog of application and infrastructure …

  • Dockercon 2016 – Seattle: a personal report

    calendar Jun 29, 2016 · 14 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    A few weeks ago I shared on my blog a cleaned up conference report from Serverlessconf 2016. Given the relatively good success of the experiment (some good feedback at “no cost” for me – copy and paste FTW!) I decided to take another shot. This time I am sharing a report from Dockercon 2016 (in Seattle). This has been …

  • Serverlessconf 2016 – New York City: a personal report

    calendar Jun 7, 2016 · 13 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    Warning: social media experiment ahead. Two weeks ago I attended Serverlessconf in NYC. I’d like to thank the organization (Stan and the acloud.guru crew) for the tremendous job (and for inviting me to attend). I originally wanted to write a (proper) blog post but then I figured that: I have already written much of …

  • AWS Lambda: a few years of advancement and we are back to stored procedures

    calendar Apr 4, 2016 · 4 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    Serverless computing is the new buzzword. AWS describes Lambda (their implementation of Serverless) as the way how you’ll do things post containers. Go figure how behind you are if you are head down learning Docker thinking it’s “the next big thing”. Sorry. In order not to look too legacy, I decided to push on GitHub a …

  • The incestuous relations among containers orchestration tools

    calendar Mar 29, 2016 · 5 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    This is going to be a short and (somewhat) visual blog post where I want to discuss the absolute madness that is going on in “container land” (for lack of a better characterization). This time I am going to try to use quotes, tweets, slide screenshots as much as possible and avoid my usual boring text rants. I believe …

  • Sample script to create a VDC (and deploy a Photon Docker Host) in vCloud Air

    calendar Mar 9, 2016 · 4 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    Yesterday I bumped into a semi-draft of code I wrote a while back and that I have never checked in into GitHub. I spent a few hours to polish it, augmenting it with some Docker related stuff (so that it becomes "cool") and test it a bit. The result is in this repo. The code is based on the awesome vca-cli …

  • A generic (and highly academic) discussion around multi-tenancy

    calendar Mar 7, 2016 · 13 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    No doubt there is an explosion of complexity these days in IT. I have discussed it many times on this blog. The avalanche of new technologies that get released at a super fast pace is astonishing. And the confusion generated is very strong, the latest survey I came across 5 minutes ago confirms. Among the many many …

  • How to use docker-machine in conjunction with the vSphere driver

    calendar Feb 17, 2016 · 3 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    This article was originally posted on the VMware Cloud Native corporate blog. I am re-posting here for the convenience of the readers of my personal blog. As many of you know docker-machine is the client side tool that allows an individual on his/ her own workstation to fire up docker hosts either local or remote. …

  • The (Upside Down) Economics of Public Clouds

    calendar Feb 10, 2016 · 7 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    In the last few years we collectively spent an outrageous amount of time talking and arguing about the “per VM” cost of running workloads on-prem Vs. running workloads in a public cloud. While doing so, we forgot to take into account the elephant in the room: the (upside down) economics of (some) public clouds. The …

  • Why Docker != Containers and Docker OSS != Docker Inc.

    calendar Jan 26, 2016 · 7 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    You try to convey a concept but it’s only when something (else) happens that people have their “Aha moment”. Last year VMware introduced a project called Bonneville that later became vSphere Integrated Containers. Having recently moved to the VMware Cloud Native Application Business Unit, working on Bonneville and VIC …
