Abstract
With the tremendous rise in virtualization and containerization over the past few decades and in the software sector, the paradigm has shifted to reevaluate the deployment architecture and orchestration management of containers by taking decentralization into account [22]. Given the growing acceptance and use of container orchestration over the past few years and the field's ongoing development [4], this study presents the ideas of "D-K8S" (Decentralized-Kubernetes) and reveals the investigation of various facets of the decentralized system using Kubernetes. Examining the mixing of different elements of the decentralized architecture among nodes and its complexities, such as cooperating for container orchestration, goes beyond the confines of centralized realms that have existed since its invention [14]. Resilient constellations, improved safety, resource efficiency, reinforced security orbits, and performance dynamics are the main topics of the D-K8S architectural study.
