Containers and where Python fits in with containers
Containers are small packages of software that serve as a unique runtime containing all of the necessary resources to run a small facet of an application, or sometimes the entire application itself.
The containers themselves are written in Go, as is the container orchestration service, Kubernetes. Those parts do not require Python unless the application code itself is written in Python. Where Python comes in handy is as the glue between the various containerized services. Orchestrating the orchestration, if you will.
Now, we are going to learn about the role that Python plays in the overall container picture. Python, as always, has a lot of libraries that support the use of containers and Kubernetes, and we will explore some of these libraries and how using Python can simplify your DevOps work where these important infrastructural elements are concerned.
