SoarCS Showcase + Kubernetes is Not Magic

Day 2 Keynotes! Langdon and Fred will go over some awesome projects by the SoarCS students from UMass Lowell. The list of projects are: - “Linear Regression Neural Network” by Adam Warden - “Froggy Land” by Ariana Brown & Cheryl Nguyen - “Shootem!” by Dylan LeDrew - “Bop it!” by Maddie Emond & Jenna Spencer - “Soar: The Game” by Immanuel Pabon - “UMass Lowell, North Campus” by Brathna Thai & Michael Foley Kubernetes is a really exciting technology, and has made distributed, horizontal and vertically-scaled deployments unprecedentedly accessible to developers. These capabilities are so powerful that sometimes, it can seem like Kubernetes is technological witchcraft. But it's not magic! In this talk, we'll look at some common misconceptions around where Kubernetes works so well that it looks like magic, demystifying the underlying technology and architecture and providing tools to navigate common failure modes. You'll learn a mental model for understanding the complexity of Kubernetes and a general approach to breaking down distributed systems.
