ViFX Announces NZ Events with International Docker Container Expert Ben Corrie

Auckland, New Zealand, 5 April, 2016 - ViFX, a New Zealand market leader in infrastructure and cloud solutions, is excited to announce they are bringing to New Zealand for the first time, International container expert Ben Corrie, Senior Staff Engineer at VMware and Principal Investigator of vSphere Integrated Containers.

The “Bringing Container Innovation to New Zealand” events will be held in Auckland on Tuesday 19th April and in Wellington on Thursday 21st April 2016.

As well as learning the real benefits of this ground-breaking technology, Infrastructure and App Development teams will also get a live demonstration and see just how easy containers are to deploy.

Neil Cresswell, ViFX Executive Director says “Docker container technology is one of the hottest innovations of this time, becoming extremely popular in this software-driven world of IT”. He believes that developers today are looking to containers as the infrastructure grease to help expedite deployment, integration, testing and provisioning. “Many believe that containers will change IT architecture the way that virtualisation did 10 years ago – and we agree”, says Cresswell.

Ben Corrie will speak about Docker technology and how containers and VMs can work together to enable enterprise deployments of cloud-native applications. Attendees will discover why this is the future of app deployment for all organisations that want to remain competitive and relevant in today’s modern world.

“The opportunity to hear Ben speak will be a real highlight for the IT industry in New Zealand”, says Cresswell. “Docker is big around the world and New Zealand infrastructure and application development teams can’t rest on their laurels. They must start learning about containers and these events are the perfect opportunity to get started”.
