At the company I work for during the day that shall remain nameless, we're starting to look at containerized application deployments instead of running applications on servers in an "old school way."
One thing we're starting to look at is Kubernetes. If you haven't heard of it before, here is a short description from their page:
Kubernetes (k8s) is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. Kubernetes builds upon 15 years of experience of running production workloads at Google, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
From what we've seen, Kubernetes will drastically change the way my company hosts, runs and deploys our applications to clients. With that in mind, I found this really cool infographic about Kubernetes. Check it out!
