Kubernetes (k8s) is the core of containerization. This open-source container orchestration platform automates multiple applications management, deployment, scaling, and maintenance operations so that your development teams can do better on the product creation, launch, rollback, release, maintenance, and quality control fronts.
Benefits of using Kubernetes
It’s free and open-source;
Scale as you prefer: K8s supports horizontal auto-scaling and manual;
Immutable and self-healing Infrastructure;
Kubernetes git deploys can be automated with each commit;
Hosting Kubernetes ensures Super-high availability for your applications;
Lowered development/business cost, as you need not buy hardware and storage;
Declarative configuration;
Portability (Move between public cloud, business datacenter, or multi-cloud);
K8s Secret objects ensure that your confidential data never gets exposed.
Ideal Use Cases
When do you need Kubernetes?
Hosting Kubernetes makes an ideal choice for any development team that aims at building microservices-based applications or plans to achieve application modernization. The k8s clusters unlock the abilities like application size auto-adjustment, app health monitoring, operation automation, and simplified infrastructure management for you.
The platform makes a perfect choice when you wish for
Faster Development
Remote Deployment
High Performance
Parallel Operations
End-user Satisfaction
Better SaaS management
Hassle-free Scaling
Continuous Delivery
Speedy Feature Releases
DevOps and Automation
The Problem
K8s is all good; where lies the problem then?
Truth be told, Kubernetes is extraordinarily advantageous for DevOps, developers, and engineers, but it takes a lot to ensure a sky-high ROI when an organization actually opts for it.
Hosting Kubernetes (k8s or k3s) becomes very costly when you hire dedicated resources unreasonably. It may even fail at delivering results when your experts are not skilled enough or when you pick the wrong tools/platform during k8s adoption.
Common Kubernetes challenges
Container Orchestration
Once your organization has hundreds of containers, it is suggested to automate tasks like provisioning, implementation, monitoring, and configuration. However, doing so, i.e.,0 achieving container orchestration, is not that easy.
Talent hunting
Skilled and certified Kubernetes resources are scarce. And when you go ahead with an in-house resource, you may end up paying a high price while still being unsure about your new employee’s abilities.
Complexity
Taking care of Kubernetes and performing all the essential or required operations is a challenging task in itself. Constantly evolving technology and the rapid movement of containers make it even more complex.
Cloud Security
Containers are performant but have high-risk factors when mismanaged. Pod compromises, inter-team collaboration, and container vulnerabilities trouble more than half of the organizations using k8s or k3s.
Infrastructure Selection
With businesses having diverse storage, networking, and computing requirements, their need for the Kubernetes platform, abilities, and resources also differ. However, everything will go wrong once you go to the wrong platform.
Management & troubleshooting
If your team cannot do regular maintenance and troubleshooting (allocating resources, restarting failed pods, resolving DNS outage issues, and checking the control panel), problems will eventually start pouring in.
