Solving for scalability & automation Stu Miniman, director of market insights for cloud platforms at Red Hat, [joined theCUBE]( to share his insights into what to watch for during the event. “IT is additive, and nothing ever dominates the entire world and nothing ever dies. So we have a long runway of activities still to go on in containers and Kubernetes. We're always looking for what that next thing is,” he told Dave Vellante. Ways to scale with Kubernetes and minimize chaos in the cloud-native space are what Platform9 Systems' Madhura Maskasky, co-founder and vice president of product, will be looking for. “I keep going back to that theme of automation, declarative automation, automation at scale, governance at scale; these are going to be top of mind for both developers and ops team,” she told John Furrier in [a KubeCon preview interview](. Solutions to solve scalability and management issues were also on the “what to expect” list, as John Furrier welcomed new theCUBE co-host Peterson]( in a special [preview CUBE Conversation]( ahead of KubeCon. “To me, KubeCon is at the center of software, Software 2.0, 3.0 … supercloud,” Furrier said. “[It’s] not where the old school is.

The bottom line, according to Vellante, is as unpredictable as the market itself.  “Reasonable people are asking: Will the red-hot valuations that we saw over the last two years from the likes of Snowflake, CrowdStrike, MongoDB Inc., Okta Inc., Zscaler and others return? Or are we in for a long, drawn-out sideways exercise before we see sustained momentum?” he asked.
