1.

A cloud-native architecture has a focus on:

A single codebase where all the different functionalities reside.

Architectural modularity, using pre-built cloud services and container technologies where they're best suited.

A hybrid-cloud approach.

Smart fridges.

How do containers provide a reliable environment that works the same on different machines?

Containers contain an image of a virtual machine OS - once loaded, the virtual machine always runs the same.

Container orchestrators manage containers that replace hardware as needed.

Containers use a hybrid-development approach where you set new parameters every time you deploy.

Containers are self-contained and encapsulate their own code, configuration, and dependencies, including references to the OS they run on.

How can cloud-native apps help to create business value?

A cloud-native approach allows rapid incorporation of user feedback.

Cloud services have built in tools and integrations for automation, such as continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) pipelines. Therefore, cloud-native apps are more likely to have robust DevOps procedures, which can decrease costs and increase reliability.

A Cloud Native architecture allows individual services to be updated and deployed without downtime for other services.

All of the above.
