Different clouds like AWS, GCP, and Azure, and a dizzying array of instances

Different K8s platforms like Red Hat OpenShift and VMware Tanzu, plus different operating systems

Multiple tools and architectures to handle all those complex environments

Limited or zero access to ultra-secure air-gapped locations

Endless back and forth with increasingly frustrated customers

Rapid changes in open source K8s components

Unlimited variability in configurations around ingress, storage, and add-on projects

Inability to issue patches to CVEs in a timely manner or see if they have been applied

Difficulty integrating CI/CD or GitOps processes

Team burnout and increasing fragility of your tools over time
