Recycling and recovery are some of the more pressing challenges in addressing waste and shifting to a more circular economy.

We'll show you how to deploy an application to enable producers and consumers to build and buy products in a sustainable way for our society, such as:

By reducing waste and increasing the use of recycled materials

By improving overall repairability of products

We'll be using Kubernetes and IBM Watson Discovery to deploy this simple application build in React & Node.js.

Containers are a good way to bundle and run your applications. In a production environment, you need to manage the containers that run the applications and ensure that there is no downtime. Wouldn’t it be easier if this behavior was handled by a system? Kubernetes provides us a framework to run distributed systems resiliently. It takes care of scaling and failover for your application, provides deployment patterns, and more.

The next ingredient, Watson Discovery, is an award-winning AI-powered intelligent search and text-analytics platform that eliminates data silos and retrieves information buried inside enterprise data.
