<p>What is configuration as data, how is different from infrastructure as code, and why can’t anything just be itself anymore? We posed these questions and more to long-time Kubernetes contributor <a href="https://twitter.com/justinsantab">Justin Santa Barbara</a> at KubeCon EU, and this episode is the result. Justin created the kOps project and now leads the team at Google that makes Kubernetes easier to consume.</p> <p>Do you have something cool to share? Some questions?
