Appreciated! I'm wondering if these are just one off teams though? We have "enterprise adoption" for our software but it doesn't mean company wide. One thing hadoop has been able to do is actually get deployed at scale. You can have small teams within companies using k8s for their apps. Some other parts of these companies can be too conservative to actually deploy new tech. The "nascent" adoption usually means innovation labs and 1 off deployments for certain teams.

What I'm trying to gauge here is k8s as an actual "company wide platform". I would love for it to be something I can depend on to be at an enterprise in a few years. It's great technology but still feels like it needs to be beaten up a bit yet.

I work on OpenShift (which is k8s with tenancy) and there's a good mix of "production apps", "dense development clusters", and "single app experimentation" out there. Like all things about the future, it's here, just not evenly distributed.

You'd be surprised how many services you interact with on a daily basis are running on k8s (whole or in part).

It's still early, and many of the adopters today in large companies just happened to be making modernization efforts of their app-dev / app-deploy pipelines and moved to k8s or OpenShift. That said, it's certainly not ubiquitous yet.

This sounds more palatable to me. I definitely know it has traction and I wouldn't be surprised to see it powering quite a few of the bigger services but it still feels like a big part of the earlyadopter phase yet. This is line with what I have seen. I know it's "out there" but it's not exactly "RHEL" yet ;).
