What does Kubernetes(K8s) have to do with Standard Oil Company?<\/strong>
In the dynamics around the development and evolution of Kubernetes #^<\/span>https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kubernetes<\/a>, I see the same pattern as in 1882 when Rockefeller used gift oil lamps to boost paraffin sales.

Though Standard Oil already monopolized the domestic market, it was always looking for new opportunities. In 1882, the company sent a merchant named William Herbert Libby to East Asia, where he was soon distributing pamphlets praising the safety of kerosene lamps\u2014and the lamps themselves. Like some latter-day software developer passing out free laptops, Libby saw to it that eight million Mei Foo, or \u201cgood luck\u201d kerosene lamps were either sold for a pittance or given away free, with millions more soon to follow.
\u201cIn many countries, we had to teach the people\u2026to burn oil by making lamps for them;\u201d Rockefeller wrote in his memoirs.<\/blockquote> [1] #^<\/span>http:\/\/kevinbaker.info\/to-light-the-lamps-of-china\/<\/a>
Similarly, open-source Kubernetes, gifted to the general public by Google, is boosting sales in the Big Tech-dominated market of cloud platform providers such as Microsoft's Azure,[3] IBM Cloud,[4] Amazon's EKS,[5] Google's Kubernetes Engine [6]
