Cisco’s Microservices Infrastructure is software that launches servers and then configures them to support applications such as real-time data processing or continuous delivery, making it easy to run application containers alongside the likes of Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Kafka, and other data-centric workloads. High-availability, service discovery, metrics, security, and logging are built in to Microservices Infrastructure, which deploys to multiple cloud providers in minutes.

Version 0.4 is due to come out this week at MesosCon, says Ken Owens, CTO Cloud Services at Cisco Systems. “We’re looking at re-naming the project from ‘Microservices Infrastructure’ to ‘Mantl,'” he says during this interview with Alex Williams of The New Stack.
