Cloud native node management best practice white paper

With the popularization of cloud computing applications, the scale of Kubernetes clusters has increased rapidly, and the importance of node management has become increasingly prominent. As a key component of cloud native architecture, node management directly affects the stability and performance of the entire cloud native application. However, the existing infrastructure management methods are more inclined to virtual machine management, and lack of deep awareness of workload, unable to meet the requirements of large-scale node management. In order to deal with large-scale node management scenarios, cloud native node management mode came into being.
