Our top 3 storage-for-containers things to look forward to at KubeCon

By Steve Bohac, OpenShift Storage Product Marketing

Season greetings!

As always, much going on with Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage!

Of course, Kubernetes 1.13 was released this week, Container Journal recently published an article I authored, and KubeCon Seattle is coming up next week… By the way, did you see the latest Forrester Wave Enterprise Container Platform Software Suites where Red Hat OpenShift was named a Leader? Good stuff!

Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage helps organizations standardize storage across multiple environments and easily integrates with Red Hat OpenShift to deliver a persistent storage layer for containerized applications that require long-term, stateful storage. Enterprises can benefit from a simple, integrated solution including the container platform, registry, application development environment, and storageall in one, supported by a single vendor.

December is always a busy month with industry conferences (not to mention holiday planning!), so as I finalized my own KubeCon plans, I wanted to pause and take a quick breath and outline my top 3 things I’m looking forward to at KubeCon Seattle 2018 next week:

  1. Assorted Kubernetes announcements (whatever they are!). Yes, who knows what kind of interesting things will be announced next week… but they’ll likely be exciting! The Kubernetes ecosystem has gotten so large now, there is always a plethora of interesting products and technologies announced at KubeCon. It’s always interesting to see how these new announcements dictate where things are going with Kubernetes and cloud native technologies in general. (By the way, for a great overview of the "third era" of Kubernetes, check out PodCTL #54 with our own Brian Gracely and Tyler Britten.)
  2. For the first time ever, there will be a Cloud Native Storage Day as one of the co-located events at KubeCon. Like the other co-located events, it takes place next Monday before the KubeCon show officially kicks off. The day’s agenda includes customers and industry leaders like Red Hat (I’ll be there with a few colleagues presenting) discussing current implementations and future directions of container storage. This should be very educational and interactive for everyone! And…. the sessions will be recorded (look back here for a post-KubeCon blog after the show for links to the recordings!).
  3. Catching up on the status of the Rook project. What is Rook? Rook is a persistent storage orchestrator that is designed to run as a native Kubernetes service. Consider it the glue between storage and the containerthe thing that makes automation work. This is an interesting development around storage for containers, and I’m looking forward to meeting up with colleagues and "fellow travelers" to understand more.

Anyway, it should be a good one at KubeCon next week (did I mention it is sold out!?). In between sessions, make sure to visit us in Booth D1 in the Expo Hall for product demonstrations, to speak with Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage experts and other community leaders about upstream projects, and to snag some of our giveaways (while supplies last!).

We hope to see you there! If we don’t catch you in person, we’ll be tweeting (and re-tweeting) all week! If you don’t already, make sure to follow us on Twitter at @RedHatStorage.

Not attending KubeCon? No sweat! You can still learn more and get hands on with a more intimate understanding of how Red Hat OpenShift and OpenShift Container Storage work together with a test drive.

Still want to learn more? Check out the Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage datasheet.
