Kubernetes is a leading container orchestration solution that enables users to increase agility, scalability, and resource efficiency while achieving portability and resiliency. Intel’s early contributions to Kubernetes helped extend its capabilities by shaping the architecture and requirements for device plug-ins and address limitations for high-bandwidth, low-latency workloads and networking applications. Today, we’re continuing to collaborate across the Kubernetes community and ecosystem to deliver best-fit performance and security for cloud-native workloads and ease the developer experience. We’ve created the Clear Linux Cloud Native example.
