The container ecosystem is now available on z/OS with the introduction of the z/OS Container Platform (zOSCP). In this session, you will learn how zOSCP leverages key z/OS technologies for providing container runtimes and Kubernetes orchestration. This session will describe the z/OSMF workflows to configure zOSCP. And finally, will end with a demonstration of the lifecycle of a container, from building and testing the container image using Podman, all the way through deploying it into your Kubernetes cluster.
