But for those who are not so familiar, in this post, we will discuss how Kubernetes has emerged as the unsung hero in an industry where agility and scalability are critical success factors. Applications can be horizontally scaled with Kubernetes by adding or deleting containers based on resource allocation and incoming traffic demands.

Container technology is very powerful as small teams can develop and package their application on laptops and then deploy it anywhere into staging or production environments without having to worry about dependencies, configurations, OS, hardware, and so on. Containers can be replicated or deleted on the fly to meet varying end-user traffic.

Making the use of resources efficiently and ensuring that this does not impact the budget available for cloud computing is not a one-time fix but a continuous cycle of picking properly sized resources and eliminating over-provisioning. Over-provisioned instances may lead to unnecessary infrastructure costs.

Scalability is a significant concern, as databases must handle growing data volumes and user demands while maintaining peak performance. Vertical scaling is also often discussed, which involves increasing the resources of a single server, which can have limitations in hardware capabilities and become costly as demands grow.

Therefore, if we want to make full use of one-sided far memory, we need to think carefully about the design of our data structures to make that access efficient. This paper is all about the design of efficient data structures for far-memory, which turns out to have consequences reaching all the way down to the hardware.
