In the beginning, developers were limited to services provided by actual cloud providers. Meanwhile, cloud native technologies have evolved and are available for on-premises systems and even developer workstations to make them more accessible and reduce friction in the development lifecycle. Containers have become the biggest enabler of this trend, allowing developers to build and package software on their workstations while being assured that their containers will run in Docker or Kubernetes on any cloud native infrastructure. Gone are the times of “it works on my machine.”
My personal cloud native journey already began when I discovered Docker but really accelerated once I started working with Kubernetes. As outlined in the previous chapter, operating Kubernetes and successfully running applications on top of it requires a different understanding of how things work together.
