CoreOS: An Introduction Building Large Reliable Systems

This presentation will be giving an overview of their key technologies, including etcd, schedulers (mesos, k8s, etc), and containers (nspawn, docker, rocket). Come and learn how to use these new technologies to build performant, reliable, large distributed systems.
