Kubernetes (K8s) is an open-source platform that enables the automated deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications, regardless of the environment (public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid). With Kubernetes, companies can run applications in a stable, repeatable, and flexible way — locally or globally.
Kubernetes has become the industry standard for managing containerized applications.
automatically adjusts resources based on workload
automatically restarts and relocates containers in case of failures
run anywhere (AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premise)
better resource utilization and automatic shutdown of unused components
integration with CI/CD processes and support for rolling updates
ideal for microservices and modern cloud-native applications
