How Kubernetes is transforming the industrial edge
According to leading independent researchers teknowlogy | PAC, open source platforms – and Kubernetes in particular – are central to the future of digital factories. The PAC RADAR report offers a detailed market analysis of industrial digitalisation trends, and it predicts that Kubernetes-based platforms that bring together edge and cloud technologies will soon dominate the digital factory landscape. This blog will take a closer look at the report’s findings, and examine why Canonical was rated Excellent for industrial edge cloud through the strength of Charmed Kubernetes, MicroK8s and Ubuntu Core. “Kubernetes will be the next big thing at the edge” In recent years, various platforms have emerged to support agile digital factory DevOps, but most industrial edge platforms have been held back by limitations to application scaling and management – and this is where Kubernetes at the edge comes in. Kubernetes is a container orchestration system. Containers make it possible to ...
