The simple truth is that there are more reliable online systems that need to be built then there are people who know how to build them. Building a distributed system is bespoke, manual and hard.

Fortunately, with the development of containers and Kubernetes, a foundation has been created for a new type of development environment to make building systems dramatically easier and more modular. But containers and Kubernetes, while necessary, are not sufficient. In this talk I introduce Metaparticle, a new standard library for easy distributed systems development on Kubernetes.

Metaparticle uses familiar, standard programming languages to enable developers and architects to design, develop and deploy their application from a single, easy to use environment.
