In this month's episode, you will hear from Marc Campbell, CTO and Co-Founder of Replicated and his colleague Chris Sanders, Director of Customer Reliability Engineering, as they discuss their company's experience with evaluating various open source Kubernetes Distributions to use when building and launching their new product: Embedded Cluster.
