This week Mark and Francesc have an in depth chat with Daniel Smith about the recent Kubernetes 1.6 release and all the amazing new features found therein.

About Daniel Smith

Currently TL of the API Machinery sub-team, Daniel has been working on Kubernetes since before it was open sourced, and contributed enough in the early days that he’s still one of the top contributors overall. Before that, Daniel worked on Borg and briefly on AppEngine. He lives in Mountain View with his wife and two children.
