In the final episode of our two-part series, Brendan returns to the Dev Interrupted podcast to bring us the founding story of Kubernetes. He discusses the battle to make Kubernetes open source, why a strong community was vital to early success and learning when to let others take the lead, avoiding a "dictator for life" approach to development.
