Yeah, and trying to explain all these concepts to devs, qa folks, data scientists, etc. when you tell them they have to start working in a Kubernetes environment, then actually working with them to make changes to their apps to make that happen is a long journey - unless you happen to have a first class team on hand that really knows the ins and outs of how the entire ecosystem works.

Kubernetes has some great attributes, but being simple isn't one. I feel sometimes that Google really pulled one on us, and this is just training people to treat the entire system as a black box, locking them in to services only top tier cloud companies have the expertise to provide and maintain reliably.
