A better Kubernetes from the ground up

It caught my eye too, but if this perception is true they do a pretty good job of faking it. I don't know if our clusters are "at scale" - the largest of them has about 120 nodes - but we have had very few issues in over three years of running production workloads on GKE.

GKE SRE feels all the pain of kubernetes and none of the pleasure. You don't get paged to be told that the fleet is happy.

I got involved very early and had to roll my own implementation using terraform and shell scripts.

It has been in productions for a long time without issue. Only downside is that we have to do blue green upgrades for major versions instead of in-place upgrades.

I keep pushing for our customer to adopt eks or gke, anything but my custom code base.
