Kubernetes (K8s)

Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management
of containerized applications. Originally designed by Google, it's now maintained by
the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)2. Here are some key features

Automated Rollouts and Rollbacks

Kubernetes progressively rolls out changes to your application while monitoring its health.

Service Discovery and Load Balancing

It assigns IP addresses and DNS names to Pods (groups of containers) and balances traffic across them.

Storage Orchestration

Automatically mounts storage systems of your choice.

Self-Healing

Restarts failed containers, replaces and reschedules containers when nodes die, and kills containers that don't respond to health checks.

Secret and Configuration Management

Manages sensitive information and configuration details without exposing them.

Batch Execution

Manages batch and CI workloads.

Containerization

Containerization is a lightweight alternative to full machine virtualization that involves encapsulating an application in a container with its own operating environment. This allows the application to run consistently across different computing environments3. Key benefits include:

Portability

Applications can run on any infrastructure without modification.

Scalability

Easily scale applications up or down.

Isolation

Each container runs in isolation, ensuring that it doesn't interfere with other containers.

Efficiency

Containers are more lightweight and use fewer resources than virtual machines
