On the contrary, as companies rely more and more on the cloud, they chase the mirage of avoiding lock-in even more and k8s plays a big role in this

Yes, I suspect there would be a rise in multi-cloud setup and K8s skills might be valuable here.

Seems very much in line with the solutions we see from customers. I still think there a big savings in embracing the managed cloud service of the individual providers, but customers see it as a risk.

I don’t know if managed clusters is actually a savings unless you really need the elasticity. Usually managed solutions are 2 or 10x the cost of dedicated servers or on prem, respectively.

Sorry, I was talking about managed database, lambda, S3. I agree that managed Kubernetes is to expensive. Unless you have a very specific workload, it honestly doesn’t make sense. Depending on your usecase building on cloud service and auto-scaling VMs is going to be much cheaper.
