Kubernetes is complex and it often slows down engineering teams at first. Building, tagging and pushing images, writing thousands of lines of YAML, adding cluster operations and security to the mix and your engineers may spend +50% of their time fighting with Kubernetes and the complexity around it rather than focusing on building great applications and shipping them fast.
While Kubernetes is the future of operating applications in the cloud and even on-prem, it's important to make sure engineering teams gain back their velocity on top of Kubernetes. This talk navigates through some key toolchains in the cloud-native ecosystem that can make engineering teams more productive when working with Kubernetes. From tools for faster image building to speeding up cluster management and operations, this talk is for anyone who cares about productivity for themselves and their team.
