Kubernetes is a popular container orchestration platform. Today’s IPv6 Buzz episode explores the benefits of using IPv6 in Kubernetes, and how Kubernetes uses IP addresses in both the control plane and data plane.

Our guest to help cover this topic is Wim Henderickx , CTO of the IP Division at Nokia.
