Continuing with my videos from KubeCon, here is a chat ClusterHQ’s founder and CTO, Luke Marsden. Luke explains Flocker, how its being used and talks about the Dell/Flocker driver.
Some of the ground Luke covers
- What is Flocker (hint: a way to connect the container universe to the storage universe)
- Why you don’t want containers that are “pets rather than cattle”
- What types of customers are using Flocker and how Swisscom uses it along with Cloud Foundry
- The Dell storage center plugin for Flocker
