Global Container and Kubernetes Security Market Definition

Container security is a standard unit of software used to package up code and all its dependencies that are anticipated to condense the process of building and establish cloud-native applications. Furthermore, the Kubernetes security technology is an open-sourced orchestration engine hosted by the cloud-native computing foundation (CNCF) to scale, automate marshaling, and administer containerized applications.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Container and Kubernetes Security Market

Coronavirus has a massive impact on various industries, including IT & telecommunication, healthcare, manufacturing, and retail sectors. However, the container and Kubernetes security market have witnessed a surge in demand, owing to the growth in the cloud computing market. The rise in the container applications market has significantly boosted the demand for container and Kubernetes security platforms, which is expected to be the prime factor for the rise in trend toward the growth of Kubernetes security devices in coming years. Moreover, the impact of COVID-19 on work from home has significantly affected the global cloud computing environment. However, the global container application technology in the manufacturing sector has witnessed a hike, owing to a surge in demand for digital infrastructure with an outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Global Container and Kubernetes Security Market Dynamics

Drivers: Surge in popularity of microservices

Microservices architecture is used to split the application into multiple services that are intended to perform fine-granted functions. Further, the microservices architecture is designed to avoid the restriction of traditional modules used to support all features that are required to run an application on resource-constrained IoT devices. Microservices-based container and Kubernetes security technology have been at maximum gain, owing to the application container model's use because it facilitates deploying, running, and upgrading the applications by using container orchestration tools, such as Kubernetes.

Moreover, Kubernetes technology supports microservices architecture to allow developers to theoretically miss the functionality of a set of pods to make it available for other developers through a well-defined API. In addition, industries, such as manufacturing, utility, social media, automotive, and retail, have been employing microservices-based container and Kubernetes security technology for the rising security data transfer.

Restraints: Complexity in managing the cloud environment

The global container and Kubernetes security market possess numerous benefits, but cloud computing itself can add complexity in the IT infrastructure, which has been impending the market growth; for instance, cloud complexity is the result of the rise in an acceleration of cloud migration and net-new development, which may expose other container resources in the environment to further risk. Moreover, the rise in concern for complexity in managing the cloud environments, which may expose sensitive data to the public, is one of the prime restraints hampering the market growth. However, the container and Kubernetes security technology are associated with many issues. It is anticipated to provide a more secure and efficient cloud environment if used properly by the IT department of an enterprise.
