Have you heard of Kubernetes?

 

What is Kubernetes?

This relatively new system is an up-to-the-minute platform that can help you build your business.

To find out more, all you need to do is take a look at what Kubernetes is already doing for many industries.

While Kubernetes is relatively new, many industries have already adopted it.

Don’t take our word for it, here are the stats of industries already up on their Kubernetes game:

Computer Software 3513
Information Technology and Services 1148
Staffing and Recruiting 852
Financial Services 309

 

These industries have already seen the benefits of Kubernetes, but what if you still have questions?

Often people want to do what Kubernetes does and how a business should use it.

The big question is:  What is Kubernetes and what does it do?

 

 Kubernetes is an open-source container management tool that uses vendor-agnostic clusters.

And if you aren’t clear on the orchestration of containers and clusters, we can explain the benefits of those too.

We want you to understand the meaning behind “containerization” and “orchestration, so that you can thoroughly understand what Kubernetes can do for you, and you don’t get lost in the terminology.

Not only does adopting Kubernetes benefit you in the long run as far as its ease and simplicity, but Kubernetes can help lower the cost of all your IT expenses.

It can help you scale quickly and ultimately simplify all internal architecture and operations of the business.

But first here are the top 5 ways adopting Kubernetes to your business will benefit you:

 

1. Kubernetes containers can help you create apps faster, making your business more portable and allowing to update quicker.

2. Kubernetes can streamline how containers “work together” eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

3. Using Kubernetes as a service will allow experts to set up and run Kubernetes for you, so everything can be automated and closely monitored.

4. Cost is optimized due to increased flexibility.

5. Seamless migrations to the cloud.

If you aren’t clear about things like “clusters” “containers” “orchestration” let us break that down for you:

First, imagine a container to be a mini-VM. Because it is small, it does not have all the device drivers of a typical VM.

Typically, setting up containers has a high cost and even some administrative efforts. Keeping track of your VMs can also prove to be a difficult task.

Kubernetes orchestration can tackle all these problems.

Kubernetes is your go-to cluster and container management tool because it deploys containers to clusters directly.

It does this all with one single interface.

And it can deploy containers to VMs, clouds and physical machines.
