Deploying your applications and workloads across distributed infrastructures while also controlling costs can be a daunting proposition. Containerizing applications and orchestrating them via Kubernetes simplifies complex deployments through declarative configurations, allowing easy management and automated scaling. Kubernetes efficiently handles resource allocation, enhancing performance and reliability.

Containers also enable compute resource sharing, supporting both vertical scaling — adding power to existing nodes — and horizontal scaling — adding more nodes to distribute the load. This flexibility ensures optimal resource use and adaptability to changing workloads.

S5T has engineered services in this ecosystem, encompassing everything from simple REST API deployments to distributed consensus systems via the Raft algorithm.
