Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting the CEO and founder of https://www.portainer.io/, https://www.linkedin.com/in/ncresswell/. For those who’ve never experienced Portainer, it’s a lightweight UI for bothhttps://thenewstack.io/deploy-a-container-stack-in-portainer-from-a-github-repository/ and https://thenewstack.io/deploy-a-persistent-kubernetes-application-with-portainer/ that makes https://thenewstack.io/microk8s-and-portainer-is-the-easiest-way-to-deploy-an-application-on-kubernetes/ and https://thenewstack.io/container-security-manage-secrets-with-portainer/ of both technologies incredibly simple.

Cresswell spent 25 years in the roles of systems engineering, IT consulting, and more recently IT management.

Cresswell: I got exposed to Docker technology back in 2016, and at that time thought “this is the next big thing.”

Right now, without using Portainer, you really do need Kubernetes trained/certified engineers to safely deploy and manage the technology.
