Kubernetes Use Cases in Smart Cities
Building Smart Cities applications with Kubernetes
Implementing Smart Cities-specific features using Kubernetes
Scaling Smart Cities platforms with Kubernetes
Architecture Patterns for Smart Cities
Pattern 1
Standard Kubernetes architecture patterns
Pattern 2
Best practices for Smart Cities implementations
Pattern 3
Scalable design for Smart Cities workloads
Performance
Right-size nodes and pods, use node pools for different workload types, implement proper scheduling and affinity rules, optimize container images.
Security
Implement RBAC, use network policies, scan images, implement pod security standards, use secrets management solutions, keep clusters updated.
Scaling
Kubernetes excels at scaling containerized workloads. Consider node autoscaling, pod autoscaling, and cluster autoscaler for comprehensive scaling.
Smart Cities Compliance with Kubernetes
Required Compliance
Implementation Considerations
- Data minimization and purpose limitation
- Right to erasure implementation
- Consent management systems
- Data portability features
Complementary Technologies for Smart Cities
languages
frameworks
databases
Recommended Team Structure
Kubernetes requires dedicated platform/DevOps expertise. Small startups may not have bandwidth; consider managed platforms like Render or Railway instead.
Success Story: Kubernetes
Series B marketplace with 15 microservices
Challenge
Deployments were painful and unreliable. Services running on different VMs with no standardization. 2-hour deployment cycles.
Solution
Fractional CTO designed Kubernetes architecture on EKS, implemented GitOps with ArgoCD, standardized all services.
Result
Deployment time reduced from 2 hours to 10 minutes. Zero-downtime deployments achieved. Infrastructure costs reduced 30% through better resource utilization.
Timeline: 4 months
