Kubernetes, often abbreviated as K8s, is an open-source container orchestration platform designed to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Originally developed by Google, Kubernetes is now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).
At its core, Kubernetes helps organizations manage large-scale container environments efficiently. It provides features like automatic scaling, load balancing, self-healing, and seamless rollouts/rollbacks, making it a go-to platform for modern microservices-based applications. Kubernetes abstracts the underlying infrastructure, whether it’s on-premises or in the cloud, allowing developers to focus more on their applications and less on infrastructure management.
With its ability to handle complex application architectures and dynamic workloads, Kubernetes has become the industry standard for running containers in production.
