With over seven years of hands-on experience working with Kubernetes, our journey has led us to explore the potential of Kubernetes at the Edge. As the Kubernetes landscape evolves, our ambition to extend its capabilities to edge computing has grown stronger. But how close are we to realizing this vision? Is the ecosystem mature enough for global adoption?

In this talk, I will share insights drawn from over ten real-world implementations of Kubernetes at the Edge. We’ll dive into the ecosystem's current state, assess its readiness for large-scale deployment, and discuss the common challenges and pitfalls that teams may encounter along the way. Whether you're just starting with Kubernetes or looking to push its boundaries, this session will equip you with valuable lessons and strategies to navigate the path forward successfully.
