If I’m using a cloud provider product like text-to-speech then which part of Kubernetes abstracts those APIs so I can move from Polly to Bing with no work? I didn’t think Kubernetes covered things like that?

In short, Kubernetes does not abstract any APIs. There are some ways to use things like Terraform to deploy and run in different cloud environments, but those API have different features that are inherrent and not transferrable.

Terraform doesn’t abstract creating resources on different cloud providers. Each provisioner is tied to specific resources for the specific cloud provider.
