Craig McLuckie helped to launch the open-source Kubernetes project while at Google and has been busy since November 2016 with his new startup Heptio. Heptio is now moving forward, thanks to a $25 million Series B round of funding, bringing total funding to date for the startup to $33.5 million.
“Kubernetes is doing really well, there is a lot of energy in the ecosystem and many companies are making Kubernetes a core part of their operating practices,” McLuckie told eWEEK in a video interview.
