The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
If you’re reading this post, you may have decided to containerize your applications. That’s great! The next step is to decide which container orchestration platform is best for you: Kubernetes or Docker Swarm. In this post, you’ll learn the key differences between Kubernetes and Docker Swarm, as well as the pros and cons of both approaches.
The serverless ecosystem has changed dramatically since it first began gaining popularity with developers who want a faster, easier way to deploy their applications. Today, it has matured into a compelling strategy for building modern, enterprise-scale products. But, as more and more organizations adopt rapidly changing technologies, developers are often left with gaps in visibility between key applications.
Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for container orchestration, making it a key piece in the containerization strategy of many users. Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D) is a Kubernetes distribution from AWS that lets you run on-premise clusters using the same tested Kubernetes versions, security features, and tooling that power Amazon EKS. This means that EKS-D is compatible with the Kubernetes tools and processes you’re already using, making it easy to operate in-house Kubernetes clusters.
Today Amazon announced Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D), a Kubernetes distribution based on and used by Amazon EKS. Amazon EKS Distro enables you to create reliable and secure Kubernetes clusters using the same versions of Kubernetes and its dependencies deployed by Amazon EKS. Each Amazon EKS Distro release follows the EKS process, verifying new Kubernetes versions for compatibility.
Today, we are excited to announce our commitment to support Calico and Calico Enterprise for the Amazon EKS-Distro, a Kubernetes distribution based on and used by Amazon EKS. EKS-D enables you to create reliable and secure Kubernetes clusters using the same versions of Kubernetes and its dependencies deployed by Amazon EKS. We view EKS-D as further confirmation of the central role that Kubernetes plays in today’s IT infrastructure.
