Building Kubernetes-native applications
summary
Describes a push to standardize infrastructure with the Kubernetes Cluster API so providers can share one representation; Google already implements it and Heptio/AWS, DigitalOcean and VMware are building theirs. Uses custom resource definitions and controllers/operators that reconcile declared state in the API server, turning specs into cloud resources. Argues Kubernetes is enterprise-capable but requires app reshaping, initial engineering cost, months to learn basics and further work like network tuning for scale.
