Kubernetes is a popular open-source container storage program. It was built by Google to manage their own systems. Kubernetes is scalable, useful and powerful tool and can easily handle containers and offer immense scalability with automation at the same time.
If your project involves virtualization where you will be using containers which will allows the kernel to create multiple isolated user-space instances then using Kubernetes is highly recommended. If you need a perfect platform that can help you in load balancing and volume management, managing all your cron jobs, replicate containers on different nodes, controlling resources, etc., Kubernetes is the perfect answer to all your questions.

Kubernetes has a set of great features that are very useful specially when it comes to production environments:

  • Container replication on different nodes
  • Auto container recovery
  • Rolling deployments
  • Service Discovery.
  • Load Balancing and Volume management.
  • Container health checks.
  • Managing cron jobs.

Kubernetes is a vendor-agnostic cluster and container management tool for deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications. It wonderfully handles the work of scheduling containers onto a compute cluster and manages the workloads to ensure they run as the user intended.

In spite of its complicated setup, Kubernetes is highly popular in some of the big companies including Google itself who developed it. Due to its versatility a lot of other organizations are also using Kubernetes in production including eBay, Github, Pearson, Box and Wikimedia.
