Google released VMs in 2013, the year of this documentary, which means they were working on it for some time prior to this discussion.

The tipping point was NASA dropping out of openstack to sign a contract with AWS.

You should checkout Azure presentations from 2012 to find out how nobody saw the "cloud" coming.

Kubernetes was a very effective strategy to make AWS knowledge irrelevant by providing a layer on top/alternative interface and it succeeded. Obviously AWS consultants would hate it for it.
