DETROIT — This isn’t a rhetorical question. As systems and teams become more and more distributed, the tech industry has a real gatekeeping language problem.

If you are talking about cloud native technology, as DataStax’s https://twitter.com/bradfordcp and https://twitter.com/omnifroodle respectively described, it’s all about composable, uniform and distributed parts.

When it comes down to it, the not easily defined cloud native isn’t just about technology — it’s equally about people and processes too.

As more and more tech stacks rely on Kubernetes orchestration, the Kubernetes project — and the cloud native community as a whole — now hinges on bringing more people, technical and not, on board.
