Containers are a way of packaging software that allows for applications to be run reliably in different computing environments. Containers bundle up an application and all its dependencies into a single image that can be run on any computing platform that supports the container runtime. This means that containerized applications are isolated from the underlying host system and have everything they need to run.

Containers are lightweight compared to virtual machines and can be spun up and down quickly, making them ideal for scaling applications up and down as demand changes. Containers also allow for more efficient use of computing resources as multiple containers can run on a single host.

Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Kubernetes can manage thousands of containers across multiple hosts, making it a powerful tool for managing modern applications.
