From Containers to Cloud-Native: The Evolution of Application Architecture

For years, containerisation has been the cornerstone of modern application deployment. Tools like Docker revolutionised how we build, ship, and run applications by packaging code and dependencies into a single, portable unit. This approach solved the classic "it works on my machine" problem and streamlined CI/CD pipelines. However, as the cloud ecosystem has matured, a new paradigm has emerged: cloud-native, event-driven architecture.
