Service

Glossary page

In Kubernetes, a Service is a way to expose a network application that is running as one or more Pods in your cluster. A Service selects a set of Pods using a selector, and if more Pods are added or removed, the set of Pods that matches the selector will automatically change. The Service abstraction ensures that network traffic can be directed to the current set of Pods for the workload. Kubernetes Services utilize IP networking (IPv4, IPv6, or both) or a DNS external name. The Service abstraction also enables other mechanisms, such as Ingress and Gateway, to be employed.

From six hours to 60 minutes: AI agent accelerates analysis work

Companies store enormous amounts of data, yet much of its potential often remains unused. Information is spread across dozens of databases and applications in different formats. Studies by McKinsey and the Microsoft Work Trend Index show that employees spend around a quarter of their working day simply searching for information. T-Systems addresses this data labyrinth: the platform “Talk to your data” searches, links, analyzes, and visualizes data with the help of an AI agent. Corporate knowledge becomes instantly accessible through a simple chat interface. Initial pilot projects already demonstrate significant efficiency gains. The time required for complex analyses has been reduced from six hours to less than 60 minutes.
