Why is Kubernetes considered the next generation application platform
1.
2. • There are several application platforms in the modern-day world that one can use for cloud
services, DevOps services, and application & software testing. Amidst all the application
platforms, the one platform that has stood out is “Kubernetes.” Kubernetes is one of the best
next-generation application platforms and will be in trend in 2023.
• In this blog, we will walk you through what Kubernetes is, its advantages, and how it is better
than other application platforms.
Why is Kubernetes considered the next-
generation application platform?

3. • Kubernetes is a prominent open-source platform for container orchestration. Multiple applications
built out of largely self-contained runtimes are called containers. Kubernetes allows you to deploy &
manage multi-container applications at scale.
• Kubernetes is primarily used with the most popular containerization platform – Docker. Kubernetes
operates with any container system that is in accordance with the Open Container Initiative (OCI)
standards for container image formats & runtimes.
• Kubernetes can be used by anyone who wants to run containers, whether on the public cloud, on-
premises, or both. Over the years, Kubernetes has become a vital part of the container revolution.

What is Kubernetes?
4. • Kubernetes have the latest abstractions & concepts, and the learning curve for Kubernetes is
on the higher end. Kubernetes has remarkable long-term advantages. Let us walk you
through the salient advantages of Kubernetes.

Advantages of Kubernetes
5. • Resource allocation management is one of the time-consuming tasks, and Kubernetes ease
off this task by managing app health, load balance, responsiveness to user demands, &
hardware resource allocation. Kubernetes saves ample time by taking off these tasks. E.g.,
the apps that don’t conform to the app’s health can be automatically repaired.
• Kubernetes maximizes the usage of hardware resources, including storage I/O, memory, &
network bandwidth. There are soft & hard limits on resource usage. Kubernetes clubs
together minimal resource usage on the same hardware. The apps that are required to be
stretched out will be placed on a system where they can grow.
• Through Kubernetes, you can automate rolling out updates across a cluster and roll back if
updates break.

Resource Allocation Management
6. • Package managers are essential in helping users from the inconvenience of manually
installing & configuring an application. Package managers are helpful in scenarios when an
app has multiple external dependencies. In Kubernetes, many software apps must run as a
cluster of interdependent containers.
• Hence, it is recommended to use Helm as the package manager for Kubernetes. Helm helps
illustrate through charts how to run an app as a cluster of containers inside Kubernetes.

Deployment of Pre-configured applications with
Helm charts
7. • Helm allows you to create your charts from scratch. It plays a vital role, especially when you have
built a custom app that must be deployed internally. However, if you are using a trendy application
having a typical deployment pattern, it means someone has already made a Helm chart for it & might
have published it in the Artifact Hub.
• You can access Helm charts from the Kubeapps.com directory.

8. • Containers are entrenched, which means the code & data you will put into them won’t be
suspected to change. However, apps need a state for dealing with external storage volumes.
• Kubernetes have the latest abstractions, allowing containers & apps to deal with external
storage in the same decoupled manner as other resources. You can access several common
kinds of external storage like Amazon EBS volumes & plain old NFS shares via Kubernetes
storage drivers, also called volumes.
• Containers often need secret credentials like API keys & service passwords for hardcoding
into a container. Kubernetes overcomes this by providing robust security for handling secrets
through its mechanism.

Simplification of storage management &
other application-related resources
9. • For any cloud computing user, it is a boon to run any app in any cloud environment or a mix
of public & private cloud. Kubernetes applications allow you to run apps in any cloud and
multi-cloud environments. You can run apps in a hybrid cloud environment. It helps in taking
maximum advantage of specific features of individual clouds.

Functional in the hybrid & multi-cloud environments
10. • Kubernetes is one of the top application platforms in the market and faces competition from
other application platforms. One such application platform that gives tough competition to
Kubernetes is Mesos.
• Mesos is an Apache project and an open-source project for managing computer clusters.
Apache Mesos played a crucial role in the Google Borg project. Mesos has been available in
the market for a longer time than Kubernetes.
• Mesos offers container orchestration services like Kubernetes. However, it is more of a cloud
operating system that synchronizes containerized and non-containerized components,
allowing you to deploy various application types. You can run several application platforms in
Mesos, including Kubernetes.

Kubernetes vs. Mesos
11. • Mesos is more straightforward to set up than Kubernetes, provided it supports your
networking & storage requirements.
• To summarize, Kubernetes is the ideal choice over Mesos for organizations looking to reap
benefits from 100+ open-source add-ons & integration given by the Kubernetes community.

12. Relation between Kubernetes & Google
• Kubernetes gained massive success & popularity in the market when Google open-sourced
Kubernetes in 2014. Kubernetes originated from Google’s Internal Technology, Borg.
• Kubernetes was developed to improve the performance of large-scale production workloads.
Kubernetes was built as a standalone technology, which will serve as a flexible option for the
open-source community.
• In 2014, Google donated Kubernetes as a seed technology to the Cloud Native Computing
Foundation (CNCF), a sub-foundation of the Linux Foundation.
• Google is one of the largest donors of the CNCF, contributing $3 million every year as
donations. Kubernetes has benefitted massively from Google and has become the pre-
eminent open-source application platform.

Conclusion
• Kubernetes have unparalleled advantages that we mentioned in the blog, and it is also better
than Mesos if you are looking to benefit from 100+ open-source add-ons.
In the last couple of years, Kubernetes has incredibly benefitted engineering team performance,
improved resource efficiency, & helped the end users of companies.
• Kubernetes is right now in the safest hands with the Linux Foundation. It has received
tremendous support from open-source contributors.
• Calidad Infotech is one of the top 10 DevOps services providers in India, and we utilize the
Kubernetes tool for providing DevOps services.
