Get Started with Kubernetes

2 min read

Kubernetes (a.k.a K8s) is an open-source container-orchestration system which manages the containerised applications and takes care of the automated deployment, storage, scaling, scheduling, load balancing, updates(rolling-updates), self-healing, batch-execution and monitoring of containers across clusters of hosts.

Kubernetes was originally developed by Google labs and later donated to Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). 

Why Kubernetes?

There are multiple Container-Orchestration systems available today but Kubernetes has become more popular as it is cost efficient and provides a lot of options to customize deployments and has support for many different vendors. It is supported on all major public cloud service providers like GCP, Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud, Digital Ocean etc. 

Kubernetes Architecture

Kubernetes follows the master/slave architecture. So, we have the master nodes and the worker nodes. The master nodes manage the worker nodes and together they form a cluster. A cluster is a set of machines called nodes. A Kubernetes cluster has at least one master node and one worker node. However, there can be multiple clusters too.
