As the event page states, it's going to be a lot of fun with four experts debating on the topic of 'When Does Kubernetes Make Sense?'.
The panel will work its way through three main questions:
- When does Kubernetes make sense? Which situations have they personally seen?
- How is this changing? What has to change in tools, management or core K8s?
- How does it impact engineers? What skills are most helpful - and most overlooked?
Questions from the audience will be embedded into the discussion by the moderator.
The fun part of this online event is that we will be teamed up, two against two. One team taking the stance that we need more Kubernetes usage across use cases and organizations regardless of their size. The other team will state the opposite and suggest that a more careful approach is needed instead of seeing every problem as solvable with the Kubernetes hammer.
