The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Kubernetes is an open-source platform that is used for automating computer application configuration, scaling, and deployment. In order to understand the importance of Kubernetes, let us take a step back and understand why this platform was introduced in the first place.
Organizations are modernizing IT infrastructure, restructuring teams, and accelerating application delivery with containers and Kubernetes. As with any technology, organizations are at various places within their journey. However, according to Gartner, more than 75% of global organizations will be running containerized apps in production by 2022. Chances are your team is using containers for some applications.
If you’re reading this post, you may have decided to containerize your applications. That’s great! The next step is to decide which container orchestration platform is best for you: Kubernetes or Docker Swarm. In this post, you’ll learn the key differences between Kubernetes and Docker Swarm, as well as the pros and cons of both approaches.
Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for container orchestration, making it a key piece in the containerization strategy of many users. Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D) is a Kubernetes distribution from AWS that lets you run on-premise clusters using the same tested Kubernetes versions, security features, and tooling that power Amazon EKS. This means that EKS-D is compatible with the Kubernetes tools and processes you’re already using, making it easy to operate in-house Kubernetes clusters.
The serverless ecosystem has changed dramatically since it first began gaining popularity with developers who want a faster, easier way to deploy their applications. Today, it has matured into a compelling strategy for building modern, enterprise-scale products. But, as more and more organizations adopt rapidly changing technologies, developers are often left with gaps in visibility between key applications.
