Should developers need to interact with the Kubernetes open source container orchestration engine at all? That was one of the many intriguing questions we got from the audience during our second pancake podcast, held Thursday, at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's Kubecon 2017. We caught it all here on this latest edition of The Stack Analysts podcast.

Sponsored by Alcide and Chef, this panel discussion set out to explore the "Evolving Patterns in Kubernetes." Leading the discussion, moderated by TNS founder Alex Williams, were the following panelists:

Erica von Buelow, CoreOS software engineer

Tasha Drew, Chef product manager for Habitat

Jeyappragash "JJ" Jeyakeerthi, Technologist

Gadi Naor, Alcide co-founder and chief technology officer
