HYBRID CLOUD & KUBERNETES 2019

The International Hybrid and Multi Cloud Summit

Hybrid Cloud

There is no doubt today that a hybrid cloud is the right solution for most organizations as a central platform. A hybrid cloud that combines a private cloud with public clouds will enable organizations to achieve the best of the worlds.

1. Keeping the control of the systems in the hands of the organization
2. Avoidance of “suppliers lock”
3. Receiving quality services from the various cloud suppliers
4. Ability to “skip” between clouds or receiving different services from different cloud providers
5. Ability to build back solutions from failure and business continuity between different cloud providers
The hybrid cloud is gradually becoming the leading standard, At the same time organizations need to learn the different suppliers to understand the information security mechanisms, the cost model and the central management ability.
There is a category of CMP – Cloud Management Platform solutions that enable centralized and simple management with a catalog of services that are exposed from the various manufacturers.
In the industry there is a standard upgrade to open cloud services called Open API.

Kubernetes

Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. In Greek it means group commander. The project began as a Google central management system that was later released as an open source and from there it became the “de facto standard” of container management. There are a number of competitors such as stabers or spiders, but some of them are small and all market leaders have gathered behind kubernetes.

The Kubernetes system is actually the modern computer center management system. The product has been evolving at a phenomenal pace to additional content worlds and is becoming the center of life for applications, services and resources.
Containers have become the first and central “tenant” in modern applications, or as they call them “digital.” The vast majority of these have been developed over the last two years in the new packaging configuration of containers.

Hot Questions for Businesses Nowadays Include:

Who manages their permissions?
Who checks their work properly?
Who distributes containers and “imports” according to central policy?
How do I package software built from a number of containers?
Kubernetes a giving a response to these and many more. The system enables the addition of modular components that enable it to manage storage, and network. The standard network allocation for Kubernetes is enabled through the CNI (Container Network Interface) and the CSI (Container Storage Interface). The system enables smart additions of interfaces and additions through the CRD (Custom Resource Definition) mechanism that allow extensions and capabilities such as Red Hat’s operator. This concept of modularity and interfaces alongside an active donor community enables the central “engine” to continue to improve and develop at an astonishing rate; a version is available every 3 months. The system is also developing to manage virtual servers from hardware systems and is becoming the “operating system” of the modern computer center.
