Kubernetes
Kuberneters, or K8s, is an open-source container orchestration platform that automates many functionalities that are useful to many developers and projects, including the automation of deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
Kubernetes simplifies and streamlines the process of managing containerized applications through:
- Container Orchestration:
This functionality allows the user to define how the containerized applications should run, ensuring that the desired state of the application is maintained.
- Automated Scaling: This allows Kubernetes to automatically scale applications based on certain metrics, which ensures that the services are always responsive and reliable.
- Self-healing: Kubernetes monitors the users applications health and will automatically replace or reschedule failed or unresponsive containers.
- Load Balancing: This functionality automatically balances loads coming to containers, ensuring an equal amount of workloads between all containers in an efficient fashion.
- Rollouts and Rollbacks: Kubernetes allows controlled updates to applications, which allow smooth rollouts of new versions as well as easy rollbacks if necessary.
These many functionalities allow many different users to create and manage many different containers in an easy and efficient way.
