As organizations increasingly adopt containerized applications, it is essential to understand what container orchestration is. This guide delves into what container orchestration is, its benefits, and how it works, comparing popular platforms like Kubernetes and Docker. We will also discuss multi-cloud container orchestration and the role of Rancher Prime in simplifying container orchestration management.

Today I am delighted to launch the latest update to the SUSE Collective: a dedicated Rancher Prime Knowledgebase. All current and future Rancher Prime customers will receive an invitation to sign up for the free program, where they can access the exclusive content and engage with all the elements of the Collective. “SUSE Collective has become the go-to place for our customers to learn more about SUSE, share their feedback and earn rewards for their ongoing loyalty.
The Rancher by SUSE team wants to accelerate the pace of development and open Rancher to partners, customers, developers and users, enabling them to build on top of it to extend its functionality and further integrate it into their environments. With Rancher Extensions, you can develop your own extensions to the Rancher UI. Completely independently of Rancher. The source code lives in your own repository. You develop, build and release it whenever you like.
Kubernetes has reached an interesting point in its lifecycle where it is now the default choice to run business-critical applications across varied infrastructures, from virtual machines to bare metal and in the cloud. This, combined with the evolving need for a single pane of glass to centralize and manage infrastructure and application deployments, has required IT teams to focus on a stable, reliable and extensible platform that can scale on demand.
We’re on a mission to build the industry’s most open, secure and interoperable Kubernetes management platform. Over the past few months, the team has made significant advancements across the entire Rancher portfolio that we are excited to share today with our community and customers.
After tremendous work by our team, I am pleased to announce the launch of Rancher Academy.
