Ok but marketing teams and micro transactions teams to get rich have fuck all to do with k8s or clusters to run lots of data quickly over the network.

Maybe you know some magic way to provide high availability for petabytes of data pushed at hundreds of Gigabits per second to millions of simultaneous connections. But I don’t. And I work with large data volumes for research that still are a fraction of Netflix data and throughput and we’ve hit the limit of single high performance storage devices necessitating a ceph cluster for storage and availability.
