(I think this is the correct order, not 100% sure of course)
1) google borg (maybe omega) [1]
2) amazon ec2
3) whatever microsoft is using
(large gap)
4) all the rest of the world combined, a small portion of which is k8s

(one might even say [1] seems to imply it'll never happen, or at least take a very long time. Also if you read the papers it becomes very clear that "Google Borg" includes a lot of things these days at many levels, from custom ASICs, device firmware (as in standard device, google borg firmware), BIOS firmware, entirely custom sub-kernel code, custom kernels, custom userspace (ie. Google-specific libc that's not optional), ... all of these will turn out to have dependencies on eachother that have to be redone for k8s, could take a while to migrate over)
(although I have not read any papers on it (I'd love some though), I'd bet amazon is in a similar boat, and of course Microsoft is Microsoft)

This is very interesting. Could you talk more on this ? There is definitely space for an "opinionated k8s distro with batteries included". I have wished for Swarm to become this....
