All You Need to Know About Kubernetes

by Kubermatic Kubernetes Kubernetes for Machine Learning

Kubernetes is an open-source orchestration program for automating deployment, scaling, and managing container operations with a rapidly growing ecosystem. Kubernetes cloud eliminates manual processes by clustering groups of hosts running Linux containers while helping to easily and efficiently manage those clusters across the public, private, and hybrid cloud. You can quickly respond to customer demands with Kubernetes.

  • Extend your applications quickly and predictably
  • Scale your applications seamlessly
  • Use new features efficiently
  • Limit hardware usage to required resources only

 

Key features of Kubernetes

 

  • Flexibility: Kubernetes is highly flexible. You can deliver applications consistently and easily, no matter how complex your requirement is. 
  • Scalability: you can scale Kubernetes according to your requirements without burdening your team.
  • Automation: you can automatically install containers based on their resource requirement and other containers without compromising availability. 
  • Run anywhere: Kubernetes gives you the liberty to take advantage of on-premise, hybrid, or public cloud infrastructure.
  • Load balancing: Kubernetes provides containers with their own IP addresses and a single DNS name for a set container, and it can load balance.
  • Automated rollouts and rollback: Kubernetes progressively rolls out changes to your application or its configuration while monitoring applications to ensure it doesn't kill all of your instances simultaneously. Kubernetes will rollback the change for you if something goes wrong. 

 

Why do you need Kubernetes? 

 

Containers are a great way to collect and run applications. However, in a production environment, you need to manage the containers that run the applications and ensures that there is no downtime. For instance, if there is something wrong with one container, another container needs to start. Kubernetes Platform provides you with a framework to run distributed systems resiliently. Kubernetes offers you with: 

 

  • Load balancing and service discovery: Kubernetes can reveal a container to their IP address and a DNS name. If traffic to a container is huge, Kubernetes can load balance and divide the network traffic to stabilize the deployment. 
  • Automatic bin packing: you provide Kubernetes with a cluster of nodes that it can use to utilize run containerize jobs. You define Kubernetes how much CPU and memory each container requires. Kubernetes can fit containers onto your nodes to make the best use of the devices. 
  • Self-healing: Kubernetes restarts containers that replace containers, fails, kills containers that don't respond to your user-defined health check, and doesn't promote them to clients until they are ready to assist. 
  • Configuration management: Kubernetes enables you to store and handle confidential information such as passwords and SSH keys. You can update and deploy confidential information and application configurations without rebuilding your container images or revealing secrets in your stack configuration

Kubernetes cloud is complex technology. However, it is the most excellent way to deploy applications quickly.
