Cloud-native architectures allow precise management of a platform’s individual software components. Kubernetes orchestrates Fusion’s cloud-native architecture, and sustains the logical separation provided by microservices, the physical separation provided by containers, and the APIs that connect the components. As a result, the Fusion platform can evolve with the changing storage, compute and application ecosystem.
DevOps teams have conflicting demands on their time. In general, development and deployment of new business applications makes the best use of their time and resources. Managing an internal hardware stack in support of an intelligent search platform? Not so much. Some of Lucidworks’ largest customers prefer that we manage Fusion for them.
