The evolution of microservices and containers in recent years has significantly changed how we design, develop, deploy and run software. Modern applications must be optimized for scalability, elasticity, failure, and change. Driven by these new demands, modern architectures require a different set of patterns and practices. In this training, we examine ways to identify, understand and adjust to these new requirements.

DC/OS (Distributed Cloud Operating System) is an open-source distributed operating system built upon the Apache Mesos project. Apache Mesos was built using the same principles as the Linux kernel, only at a different level of abstraction. The Mesos kernel runs on every machine and provides applications such as Hadoop, Spark, Kafka and Elasticsearch with API’s for resource management and scheduling across entire datacenter and cloud environments. Apache Mesos abstracts CPU, memory, storage, and other compute resources away from machines (physical or virtual), enabling fault-tolerant and elastic distributed systems to easily be built and run effectively.

DC/OS brings together Mesos and more than 30 applications into one coherent system, similar to how a Linux distribution packages the Linux kernel with applications to create a working operating system.

This course provides participants with an overview of Apache Mesos and DC/OS and demonstrates through hands-on practice how to deploy and manage a complete Data Center Operating System.

• System administrators
• DevOps engineers
