● Simple Service Orchestration● Based in Cologne, Germany● Built on top of CoreOS

Giant Swarm

● Minimal OS to host your containers● Automatic Updates● Cluster Management● Service Discovery

CoreOS 101

● Minimal Gentoo● PXE, OpenStack, AWS, GCE, Vagrant● Systemd, btrfs● Read-only rootfs (writable overlay)

CoreOS own tools

● Etcd● Fleet● Locksmith● Cloud-config

github.com/coreos

Etcd

● Highly available K/V store● Basis for

○ Configuration management○ Service Discovery

● Raft consensus algorithm● REST Interface

Discovery API

$ curl https://discovery.etcd.io/newhttps://discovery.etcd.io/463c1435f9f63c952e0899b1f459c0fe

Cloud Config

● Initialization of your instances● Configure etcd, fleet, locksmith

Configure your cluster#cloud-config

coreos:

etcd:

discovery: https://discovery.etcd.io/<token>

addr: $private_ipv4:4001

peer-addr: $private_ipv4:7001

Locksmith

● Reboot strategies for CoreOS updates● Uses etcd for distributed locks

Fleet

● Fleet is systemd for the cluster● Uses etcd● CLI and API to start your containers

Fleet Scheduler

● Simple (eg. based on Metadata)● But resolves service dependencies!● More to come (eg. based on available

resources)
