“Kubernetes supports 2000-Node clusters” - that statement was a part of the Kubernetes 1.3 release announcement. That’s great, but what exactly does it mean? During this talk I will explain what work we did to scale Kubernetes from 100 nodes in the 1.0 release to 2000 nodes, and describe the low-cost measurement infrastructure we’ve built to continuously measure Kubernetes performance at different cluster sizes. I’ll also talk a bit about our current work and plans for the future.
