What is Container Orchestration?

Short summary

Container orchestration automates deployment, scaling, and lifecycle management of containerized applications across infrastructure. As teams grow from managing dozens to thousands of containers, manual administration becomes impossible; orchestrators like Kubernetes automatically handle health checks, load balancing, rolling updates, and resource allocation without human intervention. Essential for modern cloud applications at any scale.
