2021-01-27: Technical Writing One Session

I got to work with a software engineer from Splunk working on Kubernetes. For example, one of the assignments we worked through was to summarize the project you’re working on in language the the partner could understand. Here’s what he wrote about Kubernetes, I found this nice for someone at my level:

"Kubernetes is a popular open source technology for orchestrating containers. Key benefits of using Kubernetes include:

  • Simplified deployment and lifecycle management of containerized applications
  • Consistent interface for software developers to build applications
  • Ease of scaling the application when the load grows

An example of this simplification is that when running on Kubernetes, the developer need not worry about which Operating System is being used or which machine it is running on.

Kubernetes is like a maestro in the symphony, managing different resources in the system seamlessly and providing harmonious output."

You can see how we were practicing shorter sentences and lists.
