Kubernetes is Ten Years Old… Yikes - maybe it’s time to bail and find the next new hotness before it’s too late? Is it Ray? Or wait maybe it’s Spark or Run:ai or WASM or… ? Turns out it’s a trick question - all of these and more will play a role in the next hockey stick growth graph. And Kubernetes has a key role to play too.

I lead Open Source Kubernetes at Google. In this talk I’ll share our open source strategy and how it changed recently. I'll present the strategic framework and supporting pillars. I’ll share where we will focus our energy in the Kubernetes project in the next couple of years, and some concrete goals and risks. And I'll share how we rationalize work in open source in a world of limited resources.

The world has never changed so fast. Fortunately, the Kubernetes community created an extensible platform that is (just about) ready for the next trillion core hours. It’s not time to jump ship - we’re doubling down on Kubernetes and we think you will too.
