Kubernetes is an open-source software solution that orchestrates container workloads and is designed to help manage microservices and containerized applications across a distributed cluster of computing nodes. One of its aims is to reduce the complexity of managing containerized workloads, through a number of key capabilities. Some of its main features include:
- Provides load balancing and (auto)scaling
- Eliminates a lot of the manual processes involved in deploying and scaling applications
- High availability and health monitoring
- Self-healing
- Resource efficiency, running multiple applications on the same host
- No vendor-lock-in, portable between different compute nodes, including hyperscaler clouds and bare metal.
