I'd say it's a positioning move by Gitlab to be a better acquisition target for Google. They might have hoped for Microsoft buying them, but since Microsoft beat Google in getting a hold of Github, they now are realigning. Makes sense.
- dsnuh 8y agoThis is the feeling I get as well. Tighter integration with Kubernetes gets more people interested in using GCP and GKE.

- mikewhy 8y agoThis has been planned since before the GitHub acquisition.
