CoreOS Fest 2015
Ross Kukunski's presentation on the GetYodlr.com team's experience building scalable microservices using Rackspace, CoreOS, Docker, and etcd
10. @RossKukulinski
Goals
• Reduce application complexity
• Run multiple versions of the same app
• Consistent app from dev → test → staging → prod
• Scalable
• Fault tolerant
• Minimize time spent doing ‘devops’
11. @RossKukulinski
After further deliberation, we’re going big
and switching to CoreOS/Docker entirely.
We feel its the right direction long-term for
us and application development in general.

Closing thoughts
• Containers are awesome
• We <3 CoreOS
• You can get really far with fleet & etcd
• Kubernetes is so close to primetime
• Remember: etcd is a database, treat it like one
