BOSH Working Hand-in-Hand with SystemD, a Story About Authoring a BOSH Release - Benjamin Gandon, Gstack
Bosh is the solid technology that deploys Cloud Foundry on virtual machines for over a decade, and it can also deploy any cloud software, provided that a Bosh release exists for that software. In a previous talk we’ve demystified the process of authoring a Bosh release. Here our story started when we wanted to build a modern, open source, Bosh release for running Kubernetes, based on ContainerD. And running ContainerD is not an easy one, because Bosh has to work hand-in-hand with SystemD. This lighting talk is about the story of the project, the challenges we’ve faced, the solutions we’ve come up with, and we’ll share our experience actually writing a Bosh release for running nice, clustered, cloud software.
