Except everyone is using Kubernetes.



Everyone is using Kubernetes, yes. Few are using Kubernetes for high scale production workloads. This will change within the next 2-3 years, of course, but there is a massive amounts of inertia at many of the companies that you've mentioned from moving away from traditional server based workloads.


What major tech companies are using Kubernetes?


GoldmanSachs, CapitalOne, Comcast, Hauwei, Ebay, IBM, Intel, Redhat, DigitalOcean, ING, JD.com, Monzo, NYT, SAP, Squarespace, Blackrock, Box, Wikimedia

Scroll down to Case studies; https://kubernetes.io/case-studies/ - there are far more large corps using it that aren't listed on this of course. I'll let them toot their horns if they'd like. :)

Also, as I work with k8s I like to watch the trend of HNs "Who's hiring?" threads out of curiosity and I ctrl-f for kubernetes/k8s. Last few times I've looked 20-25+ have had kubernetes in their postings. It's been a pretty fair chunk / near-majority over the last 6 months or so.

It's a marked difference from when I got on the kubernetes train around 2015, that's for sure!


They all do. Major tech companies have money to burn. Name a trendy tech that BusinessWeek or WallStreetJournal says will "transform the industry" and some schmuck exec will decree they need to be using it.


Most likely most of them.
