Various forms can take shape when discussing workloads within the realm of cloud computing environments – examples include order management databases, collaboration tools, videoconferencing systems, virtual desktops, and disaster recovery mechanisms. Storage is a critical aspect to consider when working with cloud workloads.

But managing the deployment, modification, networking, and scaling of multiple containers can quickly outstrip the capabilities of development and operations teams. Docker containers can share an underlying operating system kernel, resulting in a lighter weight, speedier way to build, maintain, and port application services.

Instead, enterprises manage individual containers on virtual machines (VMs). Container-based software isn’t tied to a platform or operating system, so IT teams can move or reconfigure processes easily.

Failures are a given and everything will eventually fail over time: from routers to hard disks, from operating systems to memory units corrupting TCP packets, from transient errors to permanent failures. If customers have many tiny files, then storage and bandwidth don’t amount to much even if they are making millions of requests.

As we are dealing with Docker images, I assume you have downloaded and installed Docker for your operating system. You will require VirtualBox (or a similar VM driver such as xhyve driver or VMware Fusion depending on your operating system) which enables Minikube to run a single-node Kubernetes cluster inside a VM.

The main improvement MSLs give is that a program data race will not corrupt the language’s own virtual machine (whereas in C++ a data race is currently all-bets-are-off undefined behavior). That’s pretty easy to statically guarantee, except for some cases of the unused parts of lazily constructed array/vector storage.
