We had a great turnout to our recent webinar “ ” and tons of questions came in via the chat — so many that we weren’t able to answer all of them in real-time or in the Q&A at the end. We’ll cover the answers to the top questions in two posts (yes, there were of questions!). First up, we’ll take a look at IT infrastructure and operations topics, including whether you should deploy containers in VMs or make the leap to containers on bare metal.  Among the top questions was whether users should just run a container platform on bare metal or run it on top of their virtual infrastructure — Not surprising, given the webinar topic. Whatever you do, avoid making a container platform decision that’s . If developers feel like they don’t have flexibility, they quickly adopt their own tools,   We didn’t go very deep on networking or storage on the webinar because they’ are topics than can easily fill multiple webinars on their own, but there were a few common questions. We received quite a few questions about how to size a design for Docker & Kubernetes. They boiled down to two main questions: We saved this one for last because this is by far the area with the most questions. Fortunately, they’re much easier questions to answer and many of the resources are free! Next week, we’ll cover questions about Kubernetes and Docker together, software pipelines and trusted content.
