An outstanding leader and personality in every respect, Poulton captained England to what is now called a 'Grand Slam' in 1914 – the last season before the First World War. Once war was declared he spent seven months training in England with his battalion of the Royal Berkshire Regiment before crossing to Belgium via France at the end of March 1915. Five weeks later he was shot dead by a sniper in the trenches, still aged only twenty-five.
Poulton-le-Fylde, the small market town a few miles inland from Blackpool in Lancashire, has a history dating back over 12,000 years. It appears in the 'Domesday Book', the town Gala has been running for over 200 years and there is archaeological evidence showing that hunter gatherers lived in the area as far back as 10,000BC. To celebrate this rich and long history, the Blackpool Dead Good Poets' Society, have created this collection of original poetry. Some of these pieces were performed at the 2013 Gala, all of them have been created for this book.
Containers have revolutionised the way we package and run applications. However, like most things, containers come with a bunch of challenges. This is where Kubernetes comes into play. Kubernetes helps you deploy and manage containerised applications at scale. It also abstracts the underlying infrastructure so that you don't need to care if you're deploying applications to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, or your own on-premises datacenter. With Kubernetes, you can develop applications on your laptop, deploy to your favourite cloud platform, migrate to a different cloud platform, and even migrate to your on-premises datacenters. Finally, Kubernetes and cloud technologies are developing fast! That's why this book will be updated every year, meaning it's always up-to-date with the latest versions of Kubernetes and the latest trends in the cloud-native ecosystem. --
