Why Kubernetes – what it is and why you want it!

In collaboration with

Did you know that Kubernetes is build on the learnings from Google’s experience of running Gmail and Youtube in containers for more than 12 years?

Why Kubernetes?

Kubernetes means pilot, illustrating that this technology is like driving a container ship. It enables you to navigate in the big open and sometimes muddy waters of cloud computing and containerised applications.

Google open-sourced the Kubernetes project in 2014 and today, it is the leading container orchestration product. It builds upon Google’s almost two decades of experience with running production workloads at scale – think Gmail and YouTube. And on top of this vast experience, Kubernetes has been infused with the best-of-breed ideas and practices from the open-source community.

Kubernetes simply enables workload portability and orchestration of containers – on-site, in public and private cloud, in multi-cloud and hybrid cloud. It has a large, rapidly growing ecosystem.

Get Onboard with Kubernetes

Trifork invites you to explore the ‘1-1 Cloud Discovery Workshop’: Understanding how to create the foundation for driving effective digital innovation in the cloud with Kubernetes.

The Workshop provides your business and your organisation with the best foundation to understand the principles of cloud-based innovation and optimisation, the critical tools in cloud and hybrid cloud architecture, and how you can leverage the benefits of Kubernetes – whether investing in private cloud, public cloud, multi cloud or hybrid cloud.

Best Tips from Us

The ‘1-1 Cloud Discovery Workshop’ will grant you:

  • Understanding of fundamental aspects of containerisation and Kubenetes Engine – both in cloud, hybrid cloud, and on-premise architectures
  • Insights into Kubernetes features around security, compliance, access management, logging, and monitoring
  • Hands-on experience using Kubernetes to commission, update, and scale one of your applications
  • Hands-on skills to design an architecture that matches your business requirements for flexibility, rapid commissioning, and efficient utilisation of resources
  • Optimisation of resources through best practices for cloud migration and cloud management
  • Risk minimisation through understanding the limitations and opportunities of cloud and hybrid cloud based architecture in your organisation
  • Understanding of how – and why – containerisation should be used to create a flexible and cost-effective microservices architecture

Cloud technologies have become the foundation for faster and better innovation – and for building and strengthening a more agile and adaptable core business. At the same time, Kubernetes has become the de-facto standard tool for automating, scaling, and operating the digital solutions that drive new business innovation and streamline processes.

Inspired by the Google Design Sprint – the ‘1-1 Cloud Discovery Workshop’ is based on years of Google and Trifork experience and all mutual learnings from facilitating Kubernetes workshops.
