Many businesses rely on cloud infrastructure to power their software solutions. The cloud today makes it easier than ever to create services and components, increasingly the complexity of software. With more and often smaller processes, cloud-native architectures have driven the need for better insights into our software—a way to look into how these processes fit together.

Kubernetes is one of the most significant advances in cloud computing since the public cloud. It provides an open-source, highly scalable, and cloud-native platform for orchestrating containerized applications. More organizations now use Kubernetes to deploy, network, scale, and manage containers at scale. In addition, the Kubernetes architecture empowers them to deploy containerized applications swiftly across various platforms, support distributed systems, and scale operations to meet demands quickly.

Economically speaking, scale-ups deliver far greater value than their size suggests. Whilst they make up just 1% of SME firms, the ‘sub-sector’ accounts for 8% of SME employment and 22% of SME turnover. Nearly 1 million people are employed in scale-up companies and these businesses have a combined turnover of almost £500 billion. Scotland has just over 2,100 scale-ups, with a pipeline of another 1,000. The current turnover of these organisations totals just over £41bn.
