Is Kubernetes actually hard, or are we just using the wrong tools? In 2026, the Kubernetes ecosystem has become a "dependency jungle." Between GitOps, YAML configuration, kubectl mastery, and complex CI/CD pipelines, developers are spending more time managing infrastructure than writing code. In this video, Ken breaks down the "hard parts" of K8s and introduces a more efficient workflow using Speedscale. Learn how to gain instant visibility into your cluster, pull logs without the headache, and turn real-world traffic into actionable load tests.

gRPC is fast and efficient - until it breaks at 2:00 AM. Traditional observability tools are built for HTTP/1.1 and JSON. When you switch to gRPC, you’re dealing with binary Protobuf payloads and HTTP/2 multiplexing that most logs and traces simply weren't designed to handle. Speedscale flips the switch by decoding Protobuf directly into human-readable JSON in real-time. Get the speed of gRPC with the visibility of REST.

Ever tried searching your entire production stack for one user? Getting paged at 3 AM is bad enough. It’s worse when you only have a single username and zero visibility into what’s actually happening across your microservices. With Speedscale, you can perform full-text searches across every API call and database interaction in real-time. Stop guessing and start debugging with total context.
