From fundamentals to production-grade deployments. Master container orchestration with our comprehensive guide covering security, cost optimization, and managed services.
Kubernetes (K8s) is an open-source container orchestration platform that automates deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications. Originally developed by Google, it's now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and has become the de facto standard for container orchestration.
This comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know about Kubernetes—from basic concepts to production-grade deployments, security hardening, cost optimization, and choosing between managed services like AWS EKS, Azure AKS, and Google GKE.
