Steering the ship: keep on top of containerisation with Kubernetes

For organisations to survive and thrive, they must release new features more frequently than ever before. The shift to cloud-based infrastructure provisioning has enabled most businesses to support this speed to market. But to effectively build and manage applications in these environments, the industry has turned to cloud-native technologies too.

And Kubernetes is the industry standard for orchestration. In 2021, VMWare estimated that 65% of large companies use it in production. While towards the end of 2022, Gartner identified ‘industry cloud platforms’ and ‘platform engineering’ as two of its top 10 strategic technology trends, predicting that 80% of software engineering organisations would have established platform teams by 2026.

Through container configuration, automation, and scaling, Kubernetes has revolutionised how software is developed and deployed, particularly when scaling and managing microservice-based applications.
