2020 brought its fair share of challenges with the COVID-19 crisis, resulting in speeding up the digital transformations of many businesses as well as the increased use of Kubernetes. A new report from D2iQ revealed that production projects using Kubernetes will rise 61% in the next two years. The research also stated the different challenges it may bring.<\/p>\n
Indeed, the report found that 89% of organizations already use Kubernetes in production or pre-production environments while 77% consider Kubernetes a critical element of the business\u2019 digital transformation strategy following the pandemic.<\/p>\n
Having Kubernetes clusters enable developers and architects to be more innovative and creative. A majority of organizations started to run Kubernetes in production or pre-production, but the method and resources used to deploy Kubernetes are significantly different. Indeed, 64% of organizations use outside resources \u2013Kubernetes management platform, a cloud SaaS service, and public cloud.<\/p>\n
However, Kubernetes present many challenges, especially in the development phase. The most common challenges found by the report were security concerns, difficulty scaling up efficiency, and a lack of IT resources. The impact of these is not evenly distributed making it difficult to assess if Kubernetes introduces more complexity or not.<\/p>\n
The report revealed that it takes about five months for an organization to adopt Kubernetes into the production environment and 60% of them claim that all of their cloud-native applications successfully made it into production the last few years. Cloud-native applications benefits are even more crucial as digital transformations are increasing everywhere.<\/p>\n
Yet, the difficulties relating to the deployment of Kubernetes made it very challenging for many businesses to gain benefits such as more agility and time-to-value.<\/p>\n
The introduction of Kubernetes in enterprises also led developers and architects to experience a burn-out or heavy stress and leading them to want to find a new job while others said it created conflict.<\/p>\n
Therefore, there is a need to have the right talent and, while 96% of organizations reported being able to find Kubernetes developers, 24% said they were unable to find someone quickly. As this is still a skill to master, most businesses are planning on investing in appropriate training to fill the talent gap.<\/p>\n
Overall, 81% declared that adopting Kubernetes is vital to their career and future employability and many organizations view Kubernetes as a crucial part of their digital transformation strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
