Kubernetes
Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling and operation of containerized applications.
Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform designed by Google and open-sourced in 2014, and it is now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). It groups many servers into a cluster and places, restarts and scales containers to match a declared desired state. It is often abbreviated as K8s.
Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) and operators extend it to run stateful systems such as databases, and it is widely used as the foundation for AI training and inference workloads.
