vSphere Integrated Containers provides critical enterprise container infrastructure to help IT Operating teams run both traditional and containerized applications providing a number of benefits:
- security
- isolation
- management
- speed
- agility
I am looking forward to getting my hands on this and expanding my knowledge on how vSphere Integrated Containers (VIC) works in the real world. vSphere Integrated Containers includes the following three major components:
- vSphere Integrated Container Engine – Docker Remote API-compatible engine deeply integrated into vSphere for instantiating container images that are run as VMs
- Container Management Portal – Portal for apps teams to manage the container repositories, images, hosts, and running container instances
- Container Registry – Securely stores container images with built-in RBAC and image replication.
For now its research time; later I get to have some hands-on fun. Here are some interesting links:
