Building a 5* Kubernetes Hotel

Explore how Fidelity International addressed cloud adoption challenges by creating the "Kubernetes Hotel" platform in this conference talk presented by Dean Fuller and Rachael Wonnacott. Learn how they tackled the problem of slow public cloud adoption by building a container hosting platform that abstracts Kubernetes infrastructure complexity, allowing developers to focus on business logic while the platform team handles the engineering aspects. The speakers share their journey from an MVP "motel" to their vision of a "5-star hotel" Kubernetes experience, discussing both successes and challenges encountered along the way. This 32-minute presentation from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) offers valuable insights for organizations looking to improve developer experience and accelerate cloud adoption through platform engineering.
