Kubernetes isn’t what you think it is anymore. In 2017, teams chose Kubernetes. In 2026, they inherit it. That changes everything about how you should approach cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and platform engineering. Most tutorials still teach Kubernetes like it’s 2018 — pods, nodes, YAML files. That mental model is broken. Modern teams don’t operate Kubernetes directly. They consume it through platforms, managed services, and internal tooling. This video explains: → Why distributed systems forced Kubernetes adoption → How platform engineering replaced manual K8s operations → The reconciliation model that makes K8s actually work → Why “learning Kubernetes” means something different now → The real question every engineering team faces in 2026 Whether you’re a developer who’s never touched a cluster or a DevOps engineer drowning in YAML — this reframes how you should think about Kubernetes going forward. ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 – The Shift Nobody Expected 0:09 – Why Teams Really Adopted Kubernetes 0:26 – The Mental Model That’s Holding You Back 0:39 – How Kubernetes Actually Arrives Now 1:12 – The Invisible Infrastructure Layer 1:34 – Why Kubernetes Still Feels Hard 1:53 – The Reconciliation Loop Explained 2:11 – How Platform Engineering Changed Everything 2:33 – The Question That Actually Matters 2:50 – Why Kubernetes Won 3:08 – The Future: Do You Even Notice It? 🔔 Subscribe for more deep dives on cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, and the future of DevOps. #kubernetes #devops #platformengineering #cloudnative #k8s #kubernetescourse #infrastructure #softwaredevelopment #programming #tech #devopsengineering
