Enterprise deployments often find themselves gridlocked in debates concerning the “correct” approach for deploying Kubernetes. Should we use immutable images or a complex configuration management solution? What about leveraging one of the managed service offerings? Or even one of the opinionated open source projects? The possibilities are endless but can also be dizzying.

They will identify the critical decision making processes that will enable “Day 2” operations, empower stakeholders, and ultimately yield successful Kubernetes outcomes.
