Data warehousing from a Kubernetes-based micro-service

In a micro-service configuration, each component is separated into services that run in one or more containers. These containers are deployed on worker nodes that are managed by one or more master nodes. These master nodes ensure that all of the component parts work as one orchestrated system. This configuration improves fault isolation, as applications can remain largely unaffected by the failure of a single micro-service. The configuration is also easier to deploy, as provisioning, scaling, and redundancy are managed automatically by the master nodes.
