Why Does Kubernetes Exist?

Kubernetes seems so complex, why is that? In this video, we look at the past 20 years of web application deployment to understand how things have evolved and the role that workload orchestrators like Kubernetes play.
This is the fourth episode in a new content series in which I plan to build an application platform with Kubernetes. This is the same type of thing that I have helped multiple startup companies build over the past 4 years!

Another great content. Good to know the past about deployments and how things have evolved to Kubernetes. All the best in the next video.

[@DevOpsDirective]

Thank you, Boosuro!
It's always useful to look back at where we came from to understand how we got to where we are!

[@filiphubertsuwik8209]

I really appreciate that you are working on not only meritorical quality but to make content a bit more entertaining. What you do is actually a teaching, and most of us hardly remember boring teachers.

[@DevOpsDirective]

I appreciate the kind words, Filip!

I was listening to this in headphones.... this Usher moment almost gave me a stroke. Great content tho!

[@hectorbartlett567]

Dude, you are an exceptional teacher ... Thank you for that great summery!

[@kevinisaac4958]

That "yeah" at the start of the video gave me a heart attack!

[@sanjayg2686]

OMG, you made so simple to understand in details, Thank you Sir

Kubernetes is so troublesome , People and finance need to troubleshoot K8s is equivalent to use traditional methods. To me it feels like a technology which solve one problem at the cost of maintaining that complex too which is another problem.

[@shivavemula5300]

This video motivated me when i get bored to in my learning journey of Kubernetes . Thank you for great content.🙂

[@derekbaker_]

Really well explained. Thank you

[@DevOpsDirective]

Thanks, Derek! 🙏

[@valentinvalenciavalencia7299]

Perfect explanation Thank you

[@mrbuckmeister]

Great explanation.

Again, I find cloud foundry for 80% of the apps I write just the perfect fit. Easy cli and ui, only provide the docker image, automated health checking by default, just plug in some services you consume, no hassle about routing or automated scaling

[@DevOpsDirective]

Nice -- still planning to do some experimentation with it soon!

[@Zimi485]

If you wanna go full experimental, kunermatic + cf-for-k8s has been a charm for me

[@tathagat9586]

Great video

[@xarmandop]

Great!

"treat a cluster of instances as a single resource" The way kubernetes does clusters is pretty wrong. If you want highly available infrastructure, kubernetes gets in the way. Highly available == Geographically distributed (physical infrastructure across the globe). Kubernetes does NOT allow you to do this and you get the same problems of "container orchestration" but at a cluster level now. It solves nothing while duplicating the problem kubernetes was intended to solve.

It's always useful to look back at how we got to where we are today!
