Cloud computing has emerged as a transformative force in the field of technology, revolutionizing the way businesses and individuals access and utilize computing resources. Hyper-V, Microsoft’s virtualization platform, plays a crucial role in cloud computing infrastructures, providing a scalable and secure virtualization foundation.

As more organizations adopt cloud-native technologies, traditional approaches to IT operations have been evolving. Complex cloud computing environments are increasingly replacing traditional data centers. The importance of ITOps cannot be overstated, especially as organizations adopt more cloud-native technologies.

Traditional computing models rely on virtual or physical machines, where each instance includes a complete operating system, CPU cycles, and memory. VMware commercialized the idea of virtual machines, and cloud providers embraced the same concept with services like Amazon EC2, Google Compute, and Azure virtual machines.

Container as a service is a cloud-based service that allows companies to manage and deploy containers at scale. Container environments enable enterprises to quickly deploy and develop cloud-native applications that can run anywhere. This, in turn, drove the creation of cloud-based services that further automated this function.
