What are virtual machines and containers, and how do they fit into our modern cloud-native way of building and architecting applications?

In this lightboard video, I’m going to answer this question and much more in four parts.

For more of a look at how these technologies compare, see the blog post “Containers vs. VMs: What’s the Difference?
