中国零售巨头京东拥有超过 3 亿活跃用户，去年收入达到 557 亿美元，树立了超大规模运营的典范。 具体而言，京东产品数据库包含超过一万亿幅顾客图片，每天新增图片数量达到 1 亿幅。这一庞大的数据量需要具备即时可访问性，以成就流畅的在线顾客体验。 京东首席架构师刘海锋表示，2014 年，京东使用 OpenStack 和 Docker 将其应用迁移到在裸机上运行的容器中，以“加速计算资源交付，大幅简化运营”。他补充道，然而，到 2015 年年底，数十万个节点运行在多个数据中心内，“由于我们的平台不够强大，我们遇到了许多问题和瓶颈，包括可扩展性问题。我们需要强大的基础设施驱动未来 5 年的发展。” 在考虑多项编排技术后，京东最终决定采用 Kubernetes 支持其不断增长的集群。刘海锋表示：“对我们而言，Kubernetes 的主要优势是能够大幅简化应用部署，显著提升其效率和可扩展性，而且可帮助我们实施灵活的平台调度。” 此外，Kubernetes 基于 Google Borg，这也增强了京东对 Kubernetes 的信心。他的团队非常看重 Kubernetes 拥有清晰、简单的架构，而且主要使用了在京东广受欢迎的 Go 语言进行开发。 刘海锋表示，京东是在 Kubernetes“还不够成熟时义无反顾地采用了这一应用。” 他的团队花费了一年的时间开发基于 Kubernetes…
