Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.” These are all astonishing tools for making our limited capacity for attention more efficient. But over time, something went very wrong.

Paravirtualization**: The hypervisor provides efficient hypercalls, and the guest OS uses drivers and kernel modifications to call these hypercalls. Enter paravirtualization, originally introduced in Xen, where the guest has been modified to be aware of the hypervisor and to make efficient hypercalls. The AMI and boot are now HVM.

Although a beta version was released in 2014, the first stable release of Kubernetes was just made available in September 2018. The result was Kubernetes, which allows developers to create and manage “clusters” of physical and virtual machines in order to coordinate cooperation via a shared network.
