+The usual "teaser" ment to get people to visit their stand and other talks
+
+## What happens if
+
+- A kernel update breaks  the CNI and affect every pod by breaking
+- An app mutates the system MTU breaking all other networking operations and even cluster management
+
+## Baseline
+
+- Platform engineers build abstractions every day
+- Infra owns the hardware and hypervisor
+- Platform own kubnernetes, gitops and so on 
+- Problem: Who owns the Node OS
+
+## Node states
+
+- ClusterAPI assumes immutable nodes by relacing them when updating the os, kubernetes or cri
+- But we want mutability for: Simple config updates, Zertificate things
+- So why immutable: Version alignment, drift detection

+Basicly a short advert for their vind project/tool.
+
+## BAseline
+
+- Current local setup: KIND, K3D or simmilar tools
+- Problem: Getting things like GPUs to work, manual image loading, no built-in loadbalancers
+- Result: There is still a gap between local and prod 
+
+## Their solution: vCluster in Docker (VIND)
+
+- Features: Built-in LB, Sleep/wake, Pull-through Cache, Multi-Node Clusters, External Nodes (via VPN)
+- USP: Platform UI

+- Drive AI-readyness initiatives
+- Data-driven ai rollout
+- Measure for impact instead of activity or speed
+- Paved paths and guardrails
+- AI infra optimizations

+- Whats good for humans is also good for llms (clear documentation, strucutred data, readable code, ...)
+- Metrics from out tools only measure that something is happening -> We need a framwork for DX and AI
