Kubernetes is deployed in production environments as a<br />
container orchestration engine, PaaS, and as core infrastructure<br />
for managing cloud-native applications. These use cases are<br />
not mutually exclusive. It is possible for DevOps to delegate complete<br />
application lifecycle management (ALM) to a PaaS layer based on<br />
Kubernetes. They may also use a standalone Kubernetes deployment<br />
to manage applications deployed using the existing CI/CD toolchain.<br />
Customers building greenfield applications can leverage Kubernetes<br />
for managing the new breed of microservices-based cloud-native<br />
applications through advanced scenarios such as rolling upgrades<br />

This section looks to capture the top customer use cases involving<br />
Kubernetes. Before highlighting the key deployment scenarios of<br />
Kubernetes, let’s take a closer look at the essential components of an<br />
enterprise container management platform.<br />
