The Kubernetes framework does not need to bundle up all the value additions from routines performed across applications. Instead it can pass through the data to hosts such as the public cloud and leverage the technologies of the host and the cloud. This techniques allows offloading health and performance monitoring to external layers which may already have significant acceptance and consistency 

There are no new tools, plugins, add-ons or packages needed by the application when Kubernetes supports these routines. At the same time, applications can choose time to evaluate the necessary conditions for distribution of modules to parts. This frees up the applications and their packages. The packages are increasingly written to be hosted on their own pods.  

Separation of the pods also improves modularity and reuse across application clients. This provides the advantage of isolation, troubleshooting and maintenance.  

Applications can make use of the declarative format of their deployment specifications. There are several advantages of specifying options and values in a configuration file but one of the clear advantages is that it can reuse the Kubernetes logic and keep all of the specifications as merely configurations. Without any code for the deployment, the application will find it simpler to deploy. 

Another advantage is that the configurations can be versioned, compared and verified offline without any requirement for the deployment to be attempted. This makes it easy for the configurations to be corrected by going forward or rolling backward between versions, finding out if the configurations have matching versions and the verifying that the entries are syntactically and semantically correct. 

The configuration files have been used for a long time but the format of the configuration has evolved more recently into a terse and simply indented format. This saves on space and errors in authoring the configuration files. The number of files written now no longer needs to be dependent on size.
