Question 1

How does Kubernetes containerization create cost savings?

Accepted Answer

Kubernetes eliminates the resource waste inherent in traditional hosting. Instead of dedicating entire servers to applications (with 40-60% unused capacity), containers use only the resources they need. Automatic scaling means you pay for resources only when actively used, not maintaining excess capacity 24/7. This precision resource management delivers 25-50% cost reductions.

Question 2

Why don't other hosting providers use Kubernetes to reduce costs?

Accepted Answer

Kubernetes requires significant expertise to implement and manage properly. Most hosting providers rely on traditional architectures because they're easier to set up initially, even though they're more expensive to operate long-term. Our team has deep Kubernetes expertise, allowing us to leverage its cost efficiencies and pass savings to clients. Many competitors are still transitioning from legacy systems.

Question 3

Does Kubernetes hosting sacrifice performance for cost savings?

Accepted Answer

No - Kubernetes actually improves performance while reducing costs. Containerized applications start faster, scale more efficiently, and self-heal automatically. Our clients typically see 30-50% performance improvements compared to traditional hosting, plus the cost savings. The efficiency gains from proper containerization create a win-win: better performance AND lower costs.

Question 4

How do you ensure security with containerized applications?

Accepted Answer

Kubernetes provides enhanced security through container isolation, network policies, and automated security scanning. Our implementation includes SOC2 Type II and ISO 27001 compliance, with containers running in isolated namespaces, encrypted communications, and regular security updates. Containerization actually improves security by isolating applications and enabling faster security patching.

Question 5

What happens if there's a problem with a container?

Accepted Answer

Kubernetes provides automatic self-healing through health checks and automatic restart policies. If a container fails, Kubernetes immediately starts a replacement. If a node fails, containers automatically migrate to healthy nodes. This automation eliminates expensive emergency support calls and reduces downtime costs - another source of our cost advantage over traditional hosting.

Question 6

Can existing applications be containerized for cost savings?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most applications can be containerized to take advantage of Kubernetes cost efficiencies. Our development team specializes in application containerization and migration. The process typically involves analyzing your current applications, creating container images, configuring Kubernetes deployments, and migrating with zero downtime. Most clients see cost savings within 30-60 days of migration. [Learn more about our enterprise hosting services](/enterprise-hosting).
