• Tectonic Summit Pancake Breakfast: How to Sell Kubernetes to the Hypervisor-Minded (http://thenewstack.io/tectonic-summit-pancake-breakfast/)
• By Kiran Oliver (https://twitter.com/koliver_writes) ; “Probably the biggest defining moment for the Kubernetes community right now is that other communities are communities of vendors more so than Kubernetes. I think Kubernetes is more a community of developers, operators, and users than it is of vendors. It’s up to us as users and developers in that community to continue to keep that feeling,” Intel VP and GM of Cloud and Infrastructure Technologies Jonathan Donaldson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathandonaldson) said on the 114th edition of the The New Stack Analysts podcast, a special “Pancake Breakfast Podcast” recorded during the CoreOS Tectonic Summit, held in New York this week. Donaldson was joined by SAP Director of Cloud Architecture & Engineering Nishi Davidson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nish2707) , CoreOS Vice President of Engineering Mike Saparov (https://www.linkedin.com/in/msaparov) , and Tigera CEO Andrew Randall

• Scalable Microservices with gRPC, Kubernetes, and Docker (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsIwYL-N4vI)
• By Sandeep Dinesh (https://twitter.com/SandeepDinesh) ; While moving to a microservices architecture provides many benefits, it also brings up a slew of challenges. Unlike monolithic architectures, microservice architectures have to deal with coordinating, organizing, and managing a collection of different services with different scaling needs. On top of these, each microservice needs a lightweight, efficient, and maintainable API to facilitate the high level of communication between services. Shows you how Kubernetes and gRPC, two open source projects based on experience Google has gained running microservices at scale, can help solve these problems!

The Kubernetes Pod abstraction enables design patterns for containerized applications similar to object-oriented design patterns. Containers provide some of the same benefits as software objects such as modularity or packaging, abstraction, and reuse
