The emergence of containers and Kubernetes
As the world increasingly relies on cloud computing, containers have emerged as the go-to technology for deploying applications at scale for enterprise’s looking to go cloud native or embark on digital transformation.
Kubernetes has become the standard for container orchestration, enabling DevOps teams to manage applications seamlessly across any cloud environment.
With Kubernetes’ growing adoption comes challenges
Managing Kubernetes can be challenging for even the most experienced DevOps teams who have the right experience and expertise. The key to successfully deploying and scaling Kubernetes is having the right platform in place that offers a comprehensive solution for cloud networking, infrastructure as code and monitoring/observability. Combining Kubernetes management tooling with GitOps is what the ideal platform looks like for any DevOps team.
The challenge enterprise IT leaders face today is wading through hundreds of cloud tools and figuring out which ones will work best with AWS and how these tools are used in a comprehensive manner across AWS and other cloud deployments. But cobbling together a Kubernetes management platform diverts resources from actual app modernization, comes with an expensive price tag, and brings a time penalty of the opportunity cost of doing something else. All of these are things an enterprise cannot afford.
Choosing to focus on what matters to the business
The key to successfully deploying and scaling Kubernetes is having the right platform in place that offers a comprehensive solution for cloud networking, infrastructure as code and monitoring/observability. Combining Kubernetes management tooling with GitOps is what the ideal platform looks like for any DevOps team.
To that end, the decision that IT leaders must make is - do you want to work on the tools to manage application modernization or do you want to actually do application modernization? Why have your internal team build a platform instead of working on new features and application improvements that can drive actual revenue? Nethopper KAOPS lets your DevOps team focus on your business outcomes.
