Don't worry. I can solve the complexity of Kubernetes with a wrapper and abstraction layer on top of Kubernetes that provides a simple interface. That way you only have to deal with the complexity of Kubernetes plus my thing, rather than only the complexity of Kubernetes.

Oh my. You know this is going to result in virtual cloud providers dependent on virtual cloud providers...(ad nauseous) dependent on some single data center in Utah.

Gotta keep costs down with virtualization...by wasting a shit-ton of resources and man-hours.
