Journey into the heart of systemd

systemd (with lowercase S and D) remains up until this day, both one of the most critical pieces of a system, and the least understood one.

This talk explains how you can harness the power of systemd to solve common problems, including some that you didn't even know you had. What problems do you ask?, you’ll have to come and see. Well cover:

• How to isolate parts of your system.

• Create dynamic users

• How to limit the resources your app can consume.

• How to interact directly with systemd: start transient units, manage services, mount disks, etc.

• How to isolate your service with and without containers.
