Kubernetes
Kubernetes is an open source system released in 2015 that allows the orchestration and management of containers on server clusters, whether physical or virtual, public or private.
It can support multiple Linux host machines or servers called nodes, each hosting one or more containers. Kubernetes allows you to create application services on several containers, plan their execution in a cluster, guarantee their integrity and ensure their monitoring.
A server called "Master" will be the conductor of the cluster and will run the containers of one or more nodes according to the availability of resources on each server. Kubernetes therefore provides a routing service between the client and the containers that have deployed the service he’s looking for.
