Kubernetes: enable developers of distributed systems to achieve both reliability and agility at scale

The dynamic behind Kubernetes is exciting along an awesome community and powerful features that evolve at the holistic pace. 

For those who are unfamiliar, Connectikpeople.co recalls that, Kubernetes has been designed to make it easy to design, develop and deploy dependable, dynamic services that meet the demanding requirements of our cloud-driven age, where the ability to respond to changes in a predictable way, to handle upgrades elegantly and to minimize downtime for users is a game changer. 

Brendan Burns, Senior Staff Software Engineer, Google, Inc., has developed a simple demo of a Container Engine cluster serving 1 million HTTP requests per second.

This element has captured our attention, due to a large number of performance tweaks and enhancements into the Kubernetes 1.1 release; the possibility to serve 1 million requests per second; and an auto-scaler , to scale in real-time your service in response to load or memory pressures.

The code for the demo is available on github, and also the full video is available.
