Active/Passive Load Balancing with Kubernetes Services

You likely know that Services are how Kubernetes provides load balancing, exposing an application running on a set of Pods as a network service, and providing a single DNS name for that application.

Security Challenges of Developing Kubernetes Infrastructure with IaC

#iac

There are many reasons to love Kubernetes. It’s open source. It’s incredibly scalable and flexible. And it turns out to be a great way to deploy hybrid cloud and multi-cloud workloads.

9 Essential Infrastructure Security Considerations for Kubernetes

Part of the reason why securing Kubernetes can be challenging is that Kubernetes isn’t a single, simple framework. It’s a complex, multi-layered beast.

Kubernetes, often abbreviated as K8s, is an open-source orchestration platform designed to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It acts as a "brain" for your infrastructure, ensuring that your containers run exactly where and how they should across a cluster of physical or virtual machines, abstracting away the underlying hardware to treat the entire data center as a single computational resource.

At its core, Kubernetes operates on a declarative model: you define the "desired state" of your application—such as how many replicas should be running or how much CPU they should use - and the system continuously works to maintain that state. If a container crashes or a node fails, Kubernetes automatically detects the discrepancy and restarts or reschedules the workload to ensure zero downtime, providing a self-healing environment that is critical for modern, high-availability systems.

Beyond simple container management, Kubernetes provides a robust ecosystem for networking, storage, and security. It handles service discovery and load balancing internally, allowing containers to communicate seamlessly without hardcoded IP addresses, and orchestrates storage mounting from various providers. By standardizing how applications are deployed and scaled, Kubernetes enables developers to move from local development to global production with consistent and predictable results.
