Linux Containers have been around for years, but they didn’t gain popularity until the Docker format made them easy to use. Docker made it so easy to move and run containers, that it’s difficult to understand how the technology works. Linux Containers rely on web technologies and the operating system. This talk will explore the fundamentals.

This talk will enable attendees to think and speak about containers in terms of operating system fundamentals. This will allow consultants, pre-sales and others to be thought leaders in their accounts. It will give them the confidence to apply their current technical knowledge in the context of Linux Containers, enabling them to create new architectures and enable sales, and implementation.

This will build on foundational knowledge from the Linux Containers 101 class and will assume a working understanding of running, building, and sharing Docker containers. This class will be a mix of slides, drawings and demos which will provide attendees with deeper knowledge in how containers work, and the difference between containers and virtualization.
