It wasn't that long ago that OpenStack was the hot new kid on the infrastructure block. That just might change with the latest release of OpenStack, code-named Queens.

The Kubernetes community has released the Kubernetes 1.10 beta, which means you can now try out some of the new features and give your feedback to the release team ahead of the official release.

Mirantis' top Kubernetes experts will be on hand at KubeCon to present live demos, discuss technical issues of running K8s, and share updates on our K8s and Containers-as-a-Service (CaaS) offerings.

The cloud is becoming commoditized; what's important is how you use it.

There are a lot of differences between OpenStack and Kubernetes, but one thing they both share is that setting them up is far from trivial.

With all the interest in the Kubernetes community we saw at the OpenStack Summit, we want to keep you up to date with all the goings-on.

From the latest OpenStack news, to baseballs puns, to the surprise appearance of Edward Snowden, the the Boston OpenStack Summit was a hub of excitement.

How to avoid spending hours of debugging on your own...

What happens when you inject AppController right into Helm?

We did a live webinar talking about 157 new features in OpenStack Ocata, but here's our standard 53.

Ideally, users should be able to have the same experience (such as the VNC console) to access their nova instances -- even if they're created by Ironic.

The next OpenStack summit will be held in Boston May 8 through May 11, 2017, and the agenda is in progress.

Managing thousands containers can be challenging, but if you want to know how Kubernetes will behave at scale we might be able to provide an answer. At KubeCon in Seattle, we shared the data we collected in our scale lab, which consists of 500 physical nodes. Using virtual machines, we can simulate up to 5000 Kubernetes minions running actual workloads, and our tests are designed to reveal how Kubernetes behaves while managing a complex application (in this case, OpenStack services) at large scale.

OpenStack is no longer the new, exciting kid on the block. That title has clearly gone to containers and container orchestration systems such as Kubernetes. So what does that mean for OpenStack?

Chinese retail giant Bailian Group transitions from brick and mortar to omni-channel commerce by using OpenStack and DevOps for increased innovation, faster time-to-market, and efficient operations.
