“Mux”是“多路传输”的简写，即在数字媒体中将多路信号整合成为一路。 自 2015 年创建以来，Mux 已经整合了所有资源，旨在“让在线流媒体视频对每个人来说都很容易”，共同创始人 Adam Brown 说，“我们的目标就是从创造高品质的流媒体体验入手，消除技术层面的复杂性。我们在易于使用的API背后帮助自动化决策，如编解码器、编码设置和CDN分发。” Mux 的两款产品之一是数据产品，为世界各地的视频播放器提供用户体验质量（QoE）指标，而视频产品让开发者能够按己所需，方便快捷地创建、编辑视频或进行直播。 有了这两个工作流程，特别是视频流程，“就会涉及到很多移动组件，”Mux 技术与架构主管 Brown 说，“我们管理来自全球各地的大型文件，很多文件都需要转码。然后还有数据流水线用于算法决策，决定使用什么转码参数，生产什么比特率，通过什么 CDN 发布。” 公司为了有效管理复杂的流程，公司很早就采用了容器化，于 2015 年 12 月第一次部署了 Docker 容器。最初，Mux 用 Rancher 堆栈管理容器，“貌似从这里入手最为简单，” Brown 说，“Kubernetes 那时还处于早期，集群和运行都比现在要复杂得多。” 一段时间之后，公司遇到网络稳定性的问题，随着 Kubernetes 生态逐渐成熟，Brown 重新把所有组件再次迁移到 Kubernetes 上。他一一考虑了众多云供应商部署、管理的 Kubernetes…
