The presentation is a whimsical introduction to the daily life of Kubernetes and common production deployments. It highlights the ecosystem of Kubernetes and its natural predators, and how developers adapt to their environment. The talk also emphasizes the importance of monitoring and scaling in Kubernetes.
- Kubernetes is a cluster that relies on YAML to perform its daily activities and guide the herd's actions of carrying workloads
- Developers bring along YAML of their own and use tools like Helm Chart and Argo CD to deploy their applications
- Scaling is one of Kubernetes' greatest strengths, but it cannot solve all problems
- Monitoring, like Prometheus, is crucial in detecting problems and alerting IT staff to take action
