Enable the ability to use the same APIs for all your private and public data centers
Use Kubernetes as a tool to offer “container-as-a-service” capabilities to their teams
Automate many traditional operational tasks such as Load Balancing, High Availability, Resource utilization, etc.
Empower both operational and development organizations to synchronize service delivery and common application outcomes
Use Kubernetes to support multi-tenancy and a multi-data center control place as an alpha feature
Leverage the same open-source Kubernetes technology that has been adopted by Walmart, Pokemon Go, eBay, Red Hat’s Openshift, and other high profile early adopters
Deliver software and IT services as smaller, faster and more adaptive components of your overall architecture

Take major steps towards implementing microservices in a pragmatic, real-world fashion
