Getting Edgy: What is Multi-Cluster?
Learn about the benefits of architecting multi-cluster Kubernetes applications
In this week’s Getting Edgy video, Kelsey Evans talks about multi-cluster Kubernetes applications. Multi-cluster is a strategy for deploying an application across multiple Kubernetes clusters. This is a growing trend that we are seeing in the space, where more and more organizations are treating their clusters as disposable.
Multi-cluster is another example of the cattle vs pets DevOps principle. Today, organizations are creating and replacing clusters rapidly like farmers would do with cattle, instead of nurturing, naming, and loving them — like you do with pets. In this video, Kelsey explains 5 benefits of adopting multi-cluster applications:
- Improved Operational Readiness
- Increased Availability and Performance
- Eliminate Vendor Lock-In
- Isolation and Multi-Tenancy
- Compliance
In this week’s video, Kelsey addresses the following two questions: 1. What is multi-cluster? and 2. Why are so many organizations adopting multi-cluster applications? Watch this video to learn more.
