Kubernetes

Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open-source system for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. By grouping containers that make up an application into logical units, Kubernetes aims to simplify management and discovery. Kubernetes supports a range of container tools, including Docker. Originally designed by Google and donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), Kubernetes builds on 15fifteen years of experience running production workloads. Kubernetes is open source and allows users to utilize on-premises, hybrid, or public cloud infrastructure.

CNCF's 2021 annual survey found Kubernetes is used across the globe, irrespective of company size (less than 9 employees to 5000+), and the most prevalent job functions include SRE/DevOps engineers, software architects (25%), and backendback-end developers (23%).

In the virtualization management software industry, Kubernetes is the most popular solution, with a market share of 25.7%. The top sectors making use of Kubernetes are software (30%) and information technology and services (14%). The state of cloud native development report published in December 2021 found that 57% of backendback-end developers used containers in the previous 12twelve months, and 31% of these used Kubernetes, a total of 5.6 million. In 2019, Kubernetes was estimated to be in useused by up to or more than 50% of Fortune 500 companies. Kubernetes clients include Google, Shopify, Slack, The New York Times, Capital One, BlackRock, CERN, IBM, Nordstrom, and Spotify.

Kubernetes is open-source software offering users the freedom to take advantage of on-premises, hybrid, or public cloud infrastructure, letting you effortlessly move workloads to where it matters to you. It is used for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery.

These companies include Capital One financial, Alphabet, BlackRock, Comcast, eBay, Goldman Sachs, IBM, Nordstrom, Northwestern Mutual, Intuit and Starbucks. Usage of Kubernetes among Fortune 100 companies is around 54% in some form, and Docker is used at around 71% for Fortune 100 companies. There are an estimated 10,000 companies using Kubernetes worldwide.
