We'll explore container and Kubernetes platform management with Rancher.  We'll discuss Cluster Provisioning, Authentication and Authorization, Application Lifecycle Management, Resource Management, Day 2 Operations, and Automation First Steps.

However, they also add extra llayers of abstraction and orchestration to your environment that hinder your ability to do performance monitoring and security enforcement.

You've got a lot of options. Maybe too many options. You want clarity in selecting the right platforms to solve your real problems and help meet your business goals.  You need a partner who can point you to the right path forward.
