Cloud, Containers, and Kubernetes: Fundamentals for Developers

This article explains the connection between cloud computing and containerization with a focus on Docker and Kubernetes.
Linux, being open source, is used by many companies and individuals worldwide, resulting in various distributions tailored to different needs.
Cloud services enable companies to lease computing resources from providers, rather than worrying about hardware maintenance, offering flexibility and convenience.
Linux is often the preferred operating system for cloud infrastructure due to its stability, security, and cost-effectiveness, with advanced tools for remote and automated management.
Docker, the most popular container system, simplifies the packaging of applications with all their dependencies, ensuring they run consistently in any environment.
Containers are a way to distribute and run applications in isolated environments, solving common issues with varying system configurations, and allowing for more efficient use of resources.
Kubernetes is a system for orchestrating containers, managing and scaling applications distributed across them, making it an ideal tool for large and complex applications.
When it comes to working with cloud technologies, being familiar with virtual servers, storage systems, databases, and monitoring tools is crucial.
Managed Kubernetes' offerings have become popular due to the complexity of setting up a Kubernetes cluster for novice users.
Microservices are becoming a popular architectural design pattern for complex systems. Kubernetes simplifies the management of microservices, streamlining administration and distribution of traffic.
