= Introduction to {product-title}
|
|
|
|
{product-title} is a platform for developing and running containerized
|
|
applications. It is designed to allow applications and the data centers
|
|
that support them to expand from just a few machines and applications to
|
|
thousands of machines that serve millions of clients.
|
|
|
|
With its foundation in Kubernetes, {product-title} incorporates the same
|
|
technology that serves as the engine for massive telecommunications, streaming
|
|
video, gaming, banking, and other applications. Its implementation in open
|
|
Red Hat technologies lets you extend your containerized applications beyond a
|
|
single cloud to on-premise and multi-cloud environments.
|
|
|
|
// The architecture presented here is meant to give you insights into how {product-title} works. It does this by stepping you through the process of installing an {product-title} cluster, managing the cluster, and developing and deploying applications on it. Along the way, this architecture describes:
|
|
|
|
// * Major components of {product-title}
|
|
// * Ways of exploring different aspects of {product-title} yourself
|
|
// * Available frontdoors (and backdoors) to modify the installation and management of your {product-title} cluster
|
|
// * Different types of container application types
