I did the same with managed services and they're in a better place than they would have been with k8s - which is where they started and had to be rescued from... It had become an inescapable gravity well of pointless busy work. It isn't about the tooling, it's knowing the business.

The sort of statement I expect to see on LinkedIn. Once you know the business, you decide on appropriate tooling. As I said, as you climb the scale and complexity ladder, Kubernetes starts to make more sense. At that point, the tooling can become very important.
