Fascinating! I've been curious about the progression of container orchestration, and it's great to see Rancher 3.0. What makes this new iteration stand out for you?

Just tried Rancher 3.0, impressed by the CI/CD functionalities. When did those features become available?

@yetanotheruser We've introduced a GitOps approach called Helm Charts, making it much easier to streamline and automate the CI/CD.

I've seen the GitOps talk. Would you say Rancher 3.0 has an easier learning curve compared to vanilla Kubernetes?

@docker_enthusiast With Rancher 3.0, we aimed to simplify the user experience, especially for those new to container orchestration. We recommend users to try hands-on with the new UI and features.
