Kubernetes is an open-source and a portable platform that helps in managing containerized services as well as workloads. It is mainly used to automate the process of deployment, management, and scaling of application containers across various host clusters. It is a container management tool that allows you to deploy containers to a network of virtual machines called clusters.
It is used for the following reasons:
- You can easily deploy your services using this
- You can roll out recent releases without any downtime
- You can easily scale or descale the services
- It is portable
- You can run the services on either private or public cloud
- You can run the services in a hybrid environment or on-premise
