Kubernetes, the Easy Way

Kubernetes has come a long way since its release a few short years ago, so has the ecosystem of tools surrounding it. What began as a single command-line tool, kubectl, for interacting with the Kubernetes API has grown into a rich ecosystem of tools for developing, deploying, and reporting on applications in Kubernetes.

We were early adopters of Kubernetes at Atomist, having used it to host our services for over two years. We love Kubernetes’ simplicity and reliability and appreciate its rapidly growing feature set. We’ve also watched with keen interest the growing ecosystem of tools around Kubernetes, tools like Helm, ksonnet, Jenkins X, Skaffold and Draft for smoothing the development and deployment workflow. While these tools are great, as we began to manage running more services on more Kubernetes clusters across a variety of environments, we really wanted something that better fit our workflow. We wanted a solution that was simple, yet flexible, a solution that allowed us, as developers, to leverage our tools and expertise to deliver our software with a minimum of fuss and ceremony. Naturally, we turned to our Software Delivery Machine (SDM) for a better solution.
