FME Flow Deployment 101: Docker and Kubernetes Explained

Container-based deployment is becoming a key part of modern infrastructure, but understanding when and how to use Docker or Kubernetes can be challenging without real-world context. This webinar is designed for FME Flow users who already have some exposure to containers and a basic understanding of Kubernetes, and are looking to build on that knowledge.

We’ll take a high-level but practical look at container deployment options for FME Flow, comparing Docker and Kubernetes to traditional virtual machine approaches. You’ll explore when each option makes sense, review example architecture patterns, and understand the trade-offs involved in scaling, maintenance, and operations.

You will learn:

• A clear comparison of Docker and Kubernetes fundamentals
• Common architecture patterns for both Docker and Kubernetes deployments
• The advantages and trade-offs of container-based deployments
• How infrastructure as code supports consistent and repeatable setups
