Kubernetes has the second most contributors reviewing code on GitHub, and in many other GitHub and social media metrics outperforms Docker and other container rivals. While some metrics are fluff, the number of contributors is a very useful indicator. Everyone knows it indicates how strong a community […]
JVM developers are focused on containerizing new as opposed to legacy apps.
Amazon Web Services continues to be the 800-lb gorilla in the public cloud space, with 41 percent of container users saying they deploy containers most frequently to AWS. Among this group, only a quarter say AWS EC2 Container Service (ECS) is the method of container deployment used most often. […]
Two-thirds of container users say they deploy most frequently on either AWS or internal data centers. For AWS, Docker Swarm and Kubernetes vie with ECS to be the preferred orchestration tool. Docker doesn’t do as well for on premises container deployment. Internally developed tools are used […]
As the number of nodes or machines managing containers in production increases, so does the need for container orchestration tools. As the size of deployments increase, tooling decisions become more important. As we wrote about last week, Kubernetes and HashiCorp see the largest uptick in use as deployment scales increase. […]
Kubernetes is the most used orchestration tool, capturing 43 percent of container users. Twenty-seven percent of all container users say Kubernetes is the container orchestrator they use most often.
Instead of a large uptake in new container users, the “action” is in converting small implementations into larger ones.
The New Stack ran a survey that was able to target users of container management technology, with 70 percent of respondents using containers to some degree. We found that there is uncertainty about what it means to manage and orchestrate containers.
This year, we conducted a new survey where both end users and vendors were asked about container orchestration. The results do nothing to say that Docker has lost its centrality, but rather that Kubernetes has arrived.
Scheduling, cluster management, and service discovery are widely acknowledged to be part of container orchestration. However, over half of the respondents also consider provisioning and monitoring to be part of orchestration. Configuration management was the functionality least likely to be associated with container orchestration, although […]
Twenty-five percent of those that deploy containers to AWS use its container service.
