The GitHub Octoverse data and the consensus of experts confirm the fact that Kubernetes isn’t about to slow down with the champagne.

The passion for Kubernetes has been around for a long time, but in recent years the love has grown and intensified. Kubernetes is a leader in managing containerized workloads and services, as evidenced by various experts over the past year.

Everyone is studying Kubernetes and even thinking about the possibility of KaaS (Kubernetes as an infrastructure), which will surely become our Lingua Franca.

Kubernetes has won the container choreography tool battle by providing a consistent, developed, independent way to manage and run workloads.

— Nicki Watt, CTO at OpenCredo

In addition to what the experts say, the data from The GitHub Octoverse 2017 further confirms that 2017 has been a very fulfilling and successful year for Kubernetes.

To be precise, three of the projects in the discussion heat and Review list are related to Kubernetes.

In terms of community discussion, developers posted over 388,000 discussions on the Kubernetes project, helping K8s win by a wide margin. The runner-up belongs to another Kubernetes-based project — Openshift, which has passed CNCF Kubernetes conformance certification.

Kubernetes ranked second on Github’s review list, thanks to a Community of Kubernetes organized as a Special Interest Group (SIG) for segmented and standardized project participation and more frequent and effective communication.

The above comments and data are just the tip of the iceberg of Kubernetes’ success, and experts predict that 2018 will be even more dominated by Kubernetes.

We will see Kubernetes dominance increase.

— Mark Pundsack, Head of Product at GitLab

Kubernetes proposed a series of conceptual abstractions, very consistent with the ideal distributed scheduling system. However, a large number of difficult technical concepts also create a steep learning curve, which directly raises the bar for using Kubernetes.

The open source PaaS Rainbond package these technical concepts into a production-ready application that can be used as a Kubernetes panel that requires no special learning.

In addition, Kubernetes itself is a container orchestration tool and does not provide management processes, whereas Rainbond provides off-the-shelf management processes, including DevOps, automated operations, microservices architecture, and application marketplaces, right out of the box.
