Kubernetes, the de facto standard for container orchestration, works best when applying a set of best practices that guide users towards reliable, cost efficient, and secure deployments. But in reality, it doesn't matter what the individual best practices are unless they are applied consistently across all teams, clusters, and Kubernetes environments. Best practices are only as effective as the policies and enforcement mechanisms that support them. In Kubernetes environments, it’s simple to have configuration drift due to inconsistent policies and policy enforcement, making it far more difficult to manage Kubernetes risks effectively.
