Kubernetes taste

# Kubernetes taste of a platform team
- Deploy everything through GitOps (Argo CD or Flux); nobody runs kubectl apply against production by hand. Confidence: 0.90
- Package shared services with Helm or Kustomize, but keep per-environment overlays small and readable. Confidence: 0.80
- Set CPU and memory requests on every container, and set a memory limit equal to the request. Confidence: 0.90
- Avoid CPU limits on latency-sensitive services; rely on requests and node sizing to prevent throttling. Confidence: 0.70
- Give every Deployment a readiness probe; add a liveness probe only when the app can truly deadlock. Confidence: 0.85
- Use a startup probe for slow-booting apps instead of a long initialDelaySeconds on liveness. Confidence: 0.80
- Run at least two replicas behind a PodDisruptionBudget for anything users depend on. Confidence: 0.90
- Spread replicas across zones with topologySpreadConstraints. Confidence: 0.80
- Pin images by digest or an immutable version tag, never latest. Confidence: 0.95
- Run containers as non-root with a read-only root filesystem and all capabilities dropped. Confidence: 0.90
