A Year in The Life: What I Learned By Doing A DevOps Documentary

2:55 - 3:25 PM ET ; Epic Hall Room​

We spent a year creating a documentary on the DevOps community, leaning heavily into the kubernetes ​community space to do so. We learned an incredible amount about what people are doing with kubernetes ​and the ways it enables them. More importantly, though, we learned that the community has a wealth of ​concerns about the present and future of kubernetes, including what should come next. Hear about this ​journey and what we found, and why the people of the kubernetes community continue to be its most ​valuable asset.
