Kubernetes
Kubernetes is an open-source platform designed to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups containers into logical units called pods, facilitating efficient management and discovery. Originating from Google's internal system, Borg, Kubernetes combines over 15 years of experience in running production workloads with best practices from the community. Its flexibility allows it to operate seamlessly across various environments, including on-premises, hybrid, and public cloud infrastructures.
