How are large companies that employ thousands of engineers easing the pain of everyone suddenly working from home?

Learn all about it from Loren Carvalho, Staff Software Engineer at LinkedIn. 

We talk about what a developer container is, why containers are so important in developer tooling, and the history of containers that brought us to this point. 

Obviously, the world has changed with so many developers now unexpectedly working from home due to COVID-19. At LinkedIn, everyone formerly had their own Linux towers at their desk to do their development work. How do you replace that hardware remotely? 

Loren and the team are harnessing a Kubernetes cluster dedicated to running remote development containers, integrated with VSCode’s native DevContainer support.
