Building GKE Autopilot

This article details the creation of Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) Autopilot, based on a KubeCon Europe presentation. It explains the key design decision to build the 'nodeless' platform on top of standard GKE nodes, focusing on removing operational duties rather than the nodes themselves. The author discusses how this approach preserved full workload compatibility, including support for StatefulSets with block storage, and accelerated time to market.
