Anyone who works in IT, in any capacity connected to software will have heard Kubernetes more than once.
While the answer is obvious to anyone in the prog/dev space and many people outside, for others it’s really unclear. People keep trying to explain it to me but it sounds like gibberish. please ?

Imagine you want to ship stuff overseas… like a lot of stuff. You could get one big boat and throw all the stuff in the hold. This actually works really well for something like oil… no harm in that! But it’s kinda a mess if you want to ship some trinkets, Nike knock-offs, and blankets all at the same time. Or, you can use a bunch of standard shipping containers of that boxy size, each with a focused kind of stuff, and pile those on some boats — that’s the Kubernetes way! Instead of shipping its “running software” but at a ELI5 level that’s almost good enough. It’s important because it drastically reduces the logistics behind doing stuff, which turns out to be really important!
