Kubernetes, often simply known as K8s, is a system designed to make deploying, scaling, and managing applications a breeze. Think of it as an invisible hand that groups and organizes your application’s “containers,” letting you manage everything in one place. Originally crafted by Google, Kubernetes has grown to be the industry’s go-to tool for container management.
And the best part? It’s backed by an active and diverse community constantly supporting and evolving it. Over the past years, businesses seeking flexible and scalable solutions for their complex applications have increasingly turned to Kubernetes as their top pick.
