Kubernetes: The Documentary Movie Published on YouTube

The documentary, published at the beginning of the year, consists of a series of interviews with engineers from Google and other companies - those who were involved in the development, development and promotion of Kubernetes. The heroes of the film tell how they overcame technical difficulties, Google's reluctance to make K8s an Open Source project, community skepticism and competition from other market players.

The film is divided into two 30-minute parts. The first talks about the prerequisites for the emergence of K8s, including Docker and Borg, as well as how the developers tried to convince Google management to release Kubernetes into the Open Source voyage.

In the 2nd part, the heroes of the film recall the historical (now already) presentation of Kubernetes at DockerCon 2014; about competition with Docker Swarm and Mesos; preparation of release v1.0; team burnout; discuss why Kubernetes has become the orchestration standard.

Among those with whom the filmmakers managed to talk are the direct developers of Kubernetes: Tim Hockin (Tim Hockin), Joe Beda (Joe Beda), Craig McLuckie (Craig McLuckie) and Brian Grant (Brian Grant).

Kubernetes authors: The Documentary - Honeypot; Google, Red Hat and CNCF also participated in the project.

After the film was published, we contacted Honeypot and offered to translate the film into Russian. Colleagues agreed, and now the documentary has Russian-language subtitles.

Happy viewing!
