Cloud Native Guide

Welcome to the Cloud Native Guide! This page provides an overview of cloud-native technologies and practices, along with resources to help you get started.

What is Cloud-Native?

Cloud-native is an approach to building and running applications that takes full advantage of the flexibility, scalability, and resilience of cloud computing.

Key Characteristics of Cloud-Native:

• Containerization: Applications are packaged in containers, which are isolated environments that package an application's code, configurations, and dependencies.
• Microservices: Applications are built as a set of loosely coupled services that can be independently deployed and scaled.
• Orchestration: Automation tools like Kubernetes manage the deployment, scaling, and operation of containerized applications.
