| == Introduction to containers ==
| | '''[[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. (Wikipedia) |

| A '''[[w:container (virtualization)|container]]''' is an isolated [[w:user space|user space]] in which [[w:computer program|computer program]]s run directly on the host [[w:operating system|operating system]]'s [[w:Kernel (operating system)|kernel]] but have access to a restricted subset of its resources. A computer program running on an ordinary operating system can see all resources (connected devices, files and folders, [[w:Shared resource|network shares]], CPU power, quantifiable hardware capabilities) of that computer. However, programs running inside a container can only see the container's portion of the file system and the devices assigned to it. The mechanism by which a host operating system runs programs in isolated user-space environments is called ''containerization'' or ''operating-system-level virtualization''. (Wikipedia)
