   A company has a team of developers who are experts in Kubernetes. The company runs workloads in its own data center and in two public clouds. The company is considering using GKE to manage all clusters. The leadership team is concerned that adopting GKE will require significant retraining and will slow down development. What is the most accurate assessment of this concern?

   • AThe concern is valid because GKE is designed for Google Cloud only and will not work with the company's other clouds.
   • BThe concern is valid because GKE uses a proprietary interface that is completely different from standard Kubernetes.
