  • Edge-Ready Kubernetes: Scaling Apps Where They Matter Most

    Edge-Ready Kubernetes: Scaling Apps Where They Matter Most
    Nov 10 2025

    Kubernetes at the edge is no longer a future trend, it's happening now, and at a massive scale. In this episode of the Edge Tech Podcast, host David Kosloski is joined by Ant Newman and Pedro Oliveira from Spectro Cloud to explore how edge computing is transforming operations across industries like manufacturing, healthcare, QSR, and defense. They unpack: - Why Kubernetes is ideal for edge environments - The challenges of deploying and scaling AI at the edge - What 50% edge Kubernetes adoption tells us about industry shifts - Real-world use cases, from drones and submarines to 100K+ retail stores. - Hardware considerations, air-gapped environments, and connectivity hurdles - Whether you're an architect, operator, or innovator, this episode helps you understand the operational realities of modern edge infrastructure and how to prepare for them.
