Build an Orchestrator in Go (From Scratch) (MEAP V11)

Understand Kubernetes and other orchestration systems deeply by building your own using Go and the Docker API.
 
In Build an Orchestrator in Go (From Scratch) you will learn how to:
• Identify the components that make up any orchestration system
• Schedule containers on to worker nodes
• Start and stop containers using the Docker API
• Manage a cluster of worker nodes using a simple API
• Work with algorithms taken from cutting-edge Google Borg research papers
• Demystify orchestration systems like Kubernetes and Nomad
 
Orchestration systems like Kubernetes coordinate other software subsystems and services to create a complete organized system. Although orchestration tools have a reputation for complexity, they’re designed around few important patterns that apply across many aspects of software development. Build an Orchestrator in Go reveals the inner workings of orchestration frameworks by guiding you as you design and implement your own using the Go SDK. As you create your own orchestration framework, you’ll improve your understanding of Kubernetes and its role in distributed system design. You’ll also build the skills required to design custom orchestration solutions for those times when an out-of-the-box solution isn’t a good fit.
