Adults who try to understand kubernetes will go, why is this talking down to me? How do the meerkats keep the pods up, how do the fish talk to the pods, how does the vultures talk to the fish?
- meddlepal 8y agoAgree not sure what the target of this or the point. I guess it's cute and it's art, but I think it misses the mark badly.
- nicolast 8y agoYou assume it's meant to explain K8s to kids, or teach adults about it. I don't believe it's either, more of a gimmick for the existing Kubernetes community. If an adult (or a kid, for that matter) wants to really learn about Kubernetes, its inner workings etc, there's plenty of documentation and literature available which does explain how Pods are scheduled, what Services are and how they're implemented, etc.
