The introduction of new disruptive technologies like Kubernetes is beginning to change the IT operational processes. These new cloud-native technologies require a different skill set and approach when it comes to operational management as organizations move to adopt containers as well as VM as the core IT delivery approach. The majority of IT operational tools, experience, and processes have evolved based on managing VMs. Therefore, IT operations need to think differently and employ new tools and processes to successfully manage both VMs and containers from the same operational team.
