K8S: What Is Kubernetes, How It Works, and Why It Became the Standard
K8S, short for Kubernetes, is an open source container orchestration system originally developed by Google and donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in 2015. It automates the deployment, scaling, resilience, and networking of containerized applications across clusters of servers. In just over a decade, K8S has become the technical foundation on which a majority of modern cloud applications run.
Kubernetes in production: how to keep the standard without taking on all its operations
Kubernetes has become a standard for running containerised applications, structuring distributed architectures and integrating into cloud-native environments.

European organisations are managing increasingly heterogeneous environments: legacy applications, cloud-native services, multi-cloud setups and regulatory constraints are accumulating within information systems rarely designed to handle such diversity.

Previewed at Devoxx starting April 22, CKE is the culmination of two years of R&D built around a complete reimplementation of Kubernetes.
