About
Kubernetes (K8s) is the dominant open-source container orchestration platform — originally developed by Google engineers (Joe Beda, Brendan Burns, Craig McLuckie) in 2014, donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in 2016, and now maintained by a global community of contributors from Google, Microsoft, Red Hat, Amazon, and hundreds of organizations. Kubernetes manages the deployment, scaling, load balancing, service discovery, and self-healing of containerized applications across clusters of compute nodes, serving as the operating system of cloud-native infrastructure for millions of applications globally.
