Building Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes

Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for orchestrating containerized applications in microservices architectures. ## Why Kubernetes? - Automatic scaling - Self-healing - Service discovery - Load balancing - Rolling updates ## Best Practices 1. Design for failure 2. Implement proper health checks 3. Use resource limits 4. Implement proper logging 5. Use Helm for deployments ## Monitoring and Observability - Prometheus for metrics - Grafana for visualization - Jaeger for tracing ## Conclusion Kubernetes is essential for modern microservices. Invest time in learning it properly.
