Right. Squarespace is a hosting provider and website builder that anyone should be able to use to build a website, typically a smaller scale website like a blog or a small to medium online store / e-commerce site. It's similar to Wix, Weebly, WordPress.com, and the website builders that some hosting providers offer.
Kubernetes is a tool large companies use to manage a large number of servers. Google invented it and open-sourced it so now it's free for anyone to use. It's not something people would use for a single website unless it was a huge website that required lots of servers, like FoxNews.com or something.
Kubernetes is a tool that lets Squarespace more efficiently host large numbers of websites on a smaller number of machines.

Thanks. That makes me feel a lot less stupid. It's much more in line with what I thought.

yes, but that's on purpose. "This is about Kubernetes, stop changing the subject to Heroku." or something. it's hard to read sarcasm online.

Thanks.
Is that accurate enough?
