How Did Our Garden Grow? Advances in the Cloud Foundry App Runtime's Container Engine - Giuseppe Capizzi, Pivotal & Yulia Nedyalkova, SAP

Garden (the Cloud Foundry App Runtime's container engine, optimised for PaaS workloads) saw awesome features bloom over the last year. This talk will help operators understand and leverage new security features such as rootless, and will introduce developers to the new and long-requested CPU Entitlements feature.

Garden is the first production runtime to support rootless mode; a wonderful security benefit. Leveraging containerd, Garden now uses more industry standards than ever, allowing for a much more familiar operator experience. New container CPU metrics enable operators and tooling to make better decisions about scaling; the speakers will demonstate concrete decision making based on reliable, consistent CPU metrics.
