What happens when you get Eyvonne, William, and our special guest Nick Eberts in the same conversation? You get a GKE party! In this episode, we dive deep into the world of multi-cluster Kubernetes management with Nick Eberts, Product Manager for GKE Fleets & Teams at Google. Nick shares his expertise on platform engineering, the evolution from traditional infrastructure to cloud-native platforms, and the challenges of managing multiple Kubernetes clusters at scale. We explore the parallels between enterprise architecture and modern platform teams, discuss the future of multi-cluster orchestration, and unpack Google's innovative work with Spanner database integration for GKE.
