'''[[w:Kubernetes|Kubernetes]]''' (commonly stylized as '''k8s''') is an [[w:open-source software|open-source]] [[w:Operating-system-level virtualization|container]] [[w:orchestration (computing)|orchestration]] system for automating [[w:application software|application]] deployment, scaling, and management. It was originally designed by [[w:Google|Google]], and is now maintained by the [[w:Cloud Native Computing Foundation|Cloud Native Computing Foundation]]. It aims to provide a "platform for automating deployment, scaling, and operations of application containers across clusters of hosts". It works with a range of container tools, including [[w:Docker (software)|Docker]]. Many [[w:cloud computing|cloud]] services offer a Kubernetes-based platform or infrastructure as a service ([[w:Platform as a service|PaaS]] or [[w:Infrastructure as a service|IaaS]]) on which Kubernetes can be deployed as a platform-providing service. Many vendors also provide their own branded Kubernetes distributions.
