Keynote: Kubernetes: This Job is Too Hard: Building New Tools, Patterns and Paradigms to Democratize
summary
Argues that container plus Kubernetes still leaves too many disconnected decisions and presents Metaparticle a language‑centric standard library that compiles code annotations or options objects into container images, pushes them to a registry and deploys Kubernetes objects. Demo shows Java and JavaScript code that becomes a running service with replicas=4, attached logs and load balancer, and examples for distributed primitives: a lock implemented via a CRD sidecar, master election, and declarative sharding using shards=4 that produces stateful sets and routing.
