Summary

IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service offers a secure and user-friendly native Kubernetes experience with features like intelligent scheduling, self-healing, and automated rollouts, and it is recognized as a Certified Kubernetes Hosted Platform by CNCF. The blog outlines a detailed process for deploying Couchbase Autonomous Operator on this service using Persistent Storage, highlighting how persistent volumes enhance data resilience and deployment flexibility by decoupling data from pods, allowing seamless pod movement without downtime. The steps include setting up an IBM Cloud account, creating a Kubernetes cluster, and installing the Couchbase Autonomous Operator, which monitors the cluster for failures and automatically recovers by creating new instances with the same persistent volumes. The guide emphasizes the resilience and efficiency of the Couchbase setup on IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service, ensuring that clusters maintain desired configurations without data loss during recovery scenarios.
