An open-source container orchestration platform, Kubernetes automates manual processes required for deployments, scalability, and app management. Some of its features include:-
- It can restart containers that fail and removing them if found unresponsive during health checks,
- Scales the application up and down automatically based on user configuration.
- Simple load balancing i.e. distributing network traffic efficiently across back-end services.
- Can be deployed alongside all storage systems from local storage to public clouds.
- The active Kubernetes community provides support to its new members.
