Software Defined Data Center Workshop

At first we will discuss what a SDDC differs from a classical data center. In the following part we will have a look at Apache Mesos an open source cluster scheduler which represents your cluster as a single big resource. We will start running tasks on our Mesos cluster with the Marathon framework. At the Addon day we will build our own framework which runs on Mesos.
