MacStadium at KubeCon 2019 - Orka Virtualization Layer for Orchestrating macOS

Written by

VMblog visits the MacStadium booth during KubeCon 2019 in San Diego.

MacStadium is showing off Orka, a new virtualization layer built specifically for orchestrating macOS in a cloud environment using Kubernetes on genuine Apple Mac hardware.

Orka (which stands for Orchestration with Kubernetes on Apple) brings powerful containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes to iOS and Mac app developers and the DevOps teams that support them. Orka was recently launched in August 2019.
