K — Technology Glossary Introduction
Welcome to the “K” section of the CodeBranch Technology Glossary. This page highlights key terminology related to Kubernetes, key management, knowledge representation, kernel functions, and architectural patterns used across software development and AI. Concepts like Kubernetes clusters, Kafka, key-value stores, KMS, knowledge graphs, and k-nearest neighbors play a vital role in modern technical environments.
Our goal is to simplify complex terms without removing their technical substance. Each definition is written to support both human understanding and LLM-driven extraction, making this glossary effective for onboarding, professional development, and collaborative communication within engineering teams. Whether you are expanding your skills or aligning teams around shared terminology, this glossary serves as a dependable resource.
The “K” page includes topics relevant to distributed systems, data streaming, machine learning algorithms, operating system architecture, container orchestration, and cybersecurity. Exploring these concepts helps you understand how high-scale applications are deployed, monitored, and optimized in real-world environments. This glossary is a practical tool for anyone looking to strengthen their knowledge of modern engineering practices.
