Kubernetes

Deep Dive Analysis

Kubernetes schedules containers across a cluster and keeps them running as declared. It is the industry standard for container orchestration, and also a large amount of complexity to take on.

Target Audience

Teams running many services at scale, or needing cloud portability.

The Final Verdict

"Right when you genuinely have the scale for it. Many teams adopt it far earlier than their problems justify."
