Did you know how “K8s” became a short form of “Kubernetes”?
•Take the word Kubernetes
•Keep the first and last letters: K and s
•Count how many letters are in between, there are 8
•Combine them: K + 8 + s → K8s
So K8s = Kubernetes
It’s just a shorthand developers use because “Kubernetes” is long to type.
Just like how “i18n” means internationalization (18 letters between “i” and “n”).
