The Intellyx Take: Kubernetes Guardrails the Cloud Native Way

White paper for Fairwinds by Jason Bloomberg

Is it too much to ask for a world where security takes care of itself, compliance is a given, and costs are always optimized?

Jason Bloomberg, a leading IT industry analyst, author, keynote speaker, and founder and president of Digital Transformation analyst firm Intellyx, asks how we resolve the dilemma of Kubernetes governance being a necessary, but despised evil?

The answer: the less governance, the better. At least, from the perspective of the people doing the work. The governance is still there, of course – more automated, more holistic, and more rigorous than ever. But following the cloud native approach, it fades from view, hidden underneath the control plane abstraction.

Get the paper to learn why:

  • Modern cloud native computing requires a rethink of this obsolete model for governance.
  • Instead of layers of bureaucracy, organizations require guardrails.
  • We must represent policies as declarative metadata.
