THERE’S SOMETHING FOR (MOSTLY EVERYBODY). EVERYBODY WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT VIEWPOINT ON THE SHOW.

Kubernetes is mainstream for this audience. Now they are dealing with next-gen challenges beyond Kubernetes.
Lots of Observability usage (and vendors)
Lots of cloud cost-management (vendors), and talk that cloud providers would start pushing that message in 2023.
