The results in this paper show that Kubernetes clusters deployed on VMware vSphere with Tanzu can match or exceed the performance of bare-metal clusters deployed on identical servers.
On vSphere, this performance advantage is achieved without the need for significant tuning and configuration steps or the modification of workloads for the use of beta state features like Kubernetes CPU Manager.
As a platform of choice for enterprise applications running on Kubernetes clusters, VMware vSphere with Tanzu provides the benefits of a virtualized infrastructure and achieves excellent performance.
