Retrospective We learn together

User feedback “The Kubernetes community has been an absolutely phenomenal model for true open source collaboration. We've been continually impressed with how transparent and open the entire design and development process has been, and it's been a huge vote of confidence for our continuing investment in the project Kubernetes is a production-ready platform that we look forward to building on for years to come” -- Sam Ghods, co-founder, Box “We’re already seeing tremendous benefits with Kubernetes — improved engineering productivity, faster delivery of applications and a simplified infrastructure. But this is just the beginning. Kubernetes will help transform the way that educational content is delivered online” -- Chris Jackson, Director for Cloud Product Engineering, Pearson
