# Quickly Understand the Basic Architecture of Kubernetes

Here’s architecture on Kubernetes. Also, explained components related to it. Precisely, it is an [operating system](https://srinimf.com/2019/03/02/9-linux-tricky-points-every-user-must-know/) on a cloud datacenter. If you have time, you try this book [The Kubernetes Real-world Use Cases.](https://dzone.com/articles/how-big-companies-are-using-kubernetes)

## Kubernetes Architecture

### Journey to Kubernetes

- In Mainframes, all resources supervised by ZOS (Z Operating system from IBM). In case of Kubernetes, it is an Operating system for Datacenter (Cloud). Here is a reference book [Kubernetes By Example.](https://kubernetesbyexample.com/)
- Do not assume that Datacenter does contain only Hardware and Storage. Now Datacenter plays key-role as Cloud speeds up.
- Cloud computing is a machine power that you can achieve with Data center. The operating system for cloud is Kubernetes. Here’s a nice book [Kubernetes on AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/kubernetes/)for beginners.

### Architecture

*Kubernetes Architecture*

### Deployment simplified

- The Kubernetes is microservices-based architecture.
- Like a football match, it oversees the function of players (microservices). Each player resembles a microservice.

### Docker Vs Kubernetes

- Docker is a container-based architecture. It is well suited for testing regions. But, Kubernetes is different. Where you can implement your apps on cloud Datacenter. This you can achieve with pods and containers.
- The Kubernetes does control the micro services. When you deploy an application to the cloud, the Kubernetes treat it as micro-service. And it oversees that micro service. Here you can check complete details [KUBERNETES: AN OVERVIEW](https://thenewstack.io/kubernetes-an-overview/)
