excerpted from website:
Kubernetes is an open-source platform for automating deployment, scaling, and operations of application containers across clusters of hosts, providing container-centric infrastructure.
- With Kubernetes, you are able to quickly and efficiently respond to customer demand:
- Deploy your applications quickly and predictably.
- Scale your applications on the fly.
- Seamlessly roll out new features.
- Optimize use of your hardware by using only the resources you need.
Our goal is to foster an ecosystem of components and tools that relieve the burden of running applications in public and private clouds.
Kubernetes is:
- portable: public, private, hybrid, multi-cloud
- extensible: modular, pluggable, hookable, composable
- self-healing: auto-placement, auto-restart, auto-replication, auto-scaling
The Kubernetes project was started by Google in 2014. Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience that Google has with running production workloads at scale, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community
