Cloud-Native Cookbook

Cloud technology is complicated! On this page, Mirantis has pulled together links to two collections of essential resources for technologists, businesspeople, and cloud native learners. If you’re studying cloud native technologies, need a quick definition of key terms for a presentation, or want to go hands-on (free!) with the core technologies and solutions now dominating the cloud native landscape, Mirantis Cloud Native Cookbook is here to help.

Cloud Native Concepts

These articles explain key cloud technologies, terms, ideas, and best practices. If you’re not sure exactly what containers are for, or why an organization might need Kubernetes, this is a good place to start.

Once you’ve read through some of this material, or reach a point where you want to study cloud native tech more seriously, Mirantis Training can help – with a host of flexible online and in-person courses (all completely vendor-neutral!) for up-skilling, mastering containers and Kubernetes, and prepping for cloud native certification exams.

Kubernetes Lab

The internet is full of sketchy advice for how to install container runtimes, build Kubernetes clusters on different infrastructures, and use modern DevOps tools. Great for experienced engineers – not always great for others.

Our Kubernetes Lab section goes several steps further, and provides ALL the basic tutorials you’ll need to set up a laptop-based or cloud-based laboratory for home or work, aimed at evaluating cloud native tech and products. Plus: we provide tested recipes for installing and going hands-on with every Mirantis product: including Mirantis Container Runtime (think: enterprise Docker Engine) and Swarm (simple container cluster), Mirantis Secure Registry (secure enterprise container registry), and Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (Kubernetes or Swarm cluster model for Linux or Windows, with built-in enterprise-grade container networking and ingress). You can also try our flagship solution, Mirantis Container Cloud: a system for deploying and lifecycle managing Kubernetes on any kind of infrastructure (or on multiple infrastructures).
