I didn't memorize the presentations and SELF presentations usually require about
a month to be posted to youtube. Did take notes for myself for many of the
sessions attended. Sometimes, my notes boil down to "use A, not B" ... but I
didn't capture the "why." Sorry.
I've been on libvirt + KVM for about 6 yrs. The newer releases have native
support for containers (which I haven't used) since none of my production
systems use containers. If I can actually implement the security best practices
for containers, which is non-trivial, may, switch a few over to be containers. I
will NOT be grabbing any pre-build containers. THAT is certain.
After all, if the hostOS is compromised, the war is lost.
I attended almost all the container/docker/virtualization and video/photography
sessions:

Also attended the Routing With Linux session. This was based on the Ars article.
Basically, he used a small Ubuntu Linux, manually turned it into a router, added
about a page of iptables rules and said it was faster after doing some
throughput testing. iperf testing didn't count; something about really pusing
data through that makes the cheap routers fail though iperf shows them handling
GigE performance without issue. Had some good reasons to prefer a current,
maintained, Linux distro over pre-made BSD router distros like pfSense.

Yes, please. And I'm prepared to talk about libvirt, virt-manager, and
virt-viewer for desktop usage.

Would it be worth hearing about SELF? There were at least 4 sessions on
containers and docker - it will change the way I deal with
containers completely
- mainly from a security perspective.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
