2021 Business Intelligence Product Release Highlights

Support for Clustering Options Using Docker and Kubernetes Added

Leading the many feature additions and customer-driven improvements of the 2021 product release is adding support for clustering options using Docker containers and Kubernetes. The combination of these two infrastructure technologies makes managing InetSoft deployments even more efficient.

As Kubernetes is a container orchestration system it provides the following benefits:

1. Automated, consistent, and repeatable deployment of containers

2. Automatic scaling of containers

3. Automatic system and resource management, including storage, networking, and security

4. Automatic failover as non-responsive cluster nodes are automatically restarted

This advance supports DevOps teams employing continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. Furthermore, the Docker and Kubernetes technologies are supported by many popular cloud infrastructures, including Amazon (EKS), Azure (AKS), and Google Cloud (GKE).
