Feedback?- Topic 1 - Where do you see Kubernetes today in terms of maturity, breadth of capabilities, ease of use, etc.?
- Topic 2 - How is Google's Engineering structured to manage GKE/GCP services, open source contributions and partner engagements?
- Topic 3 - What are some of the common use-cases with GKE usage? Do you also track Kubernetes usage on GCP services to see where you need to expand/improve GKE?
- Topic 4 - Is Kubernetes easy enough, or robust enough for developers today? If not, where does it need to expand? Should this be within Kubernetes, or in other areas like Istio (or other)?
- Topic 5 - How do you see Kubernetes Federation evolving? What might be possible for end-customers over time?
