Kubernetes containerized environments can allow organizations to offer a high-quality user experience for multi-tiered web applications, such as those for online auctions and ecommerce.
At Principled Technologies, we ran Weathervane 2.1, a multi-tiered web app workload for Kubernetes, on a Dell EMC™ PowerEdge™ R750 server running VMware® vSphere® and VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG). The server supported up to 47,150 concurrent Weathervane users (WvUsers) while meeting the workload’s QoS requirements. With this kind of performance, the PowerEdge R750 running a VMware Kubernetes environment could allow organizations to consolidate application tiers from older servers and continue to meet critical service level agreements.
