How Netflix Simplified Batch Compute with Kueue

A concrete look at how Netflix simplified its batch compute stack by adopting Kueue, the Kubernetes-native job queueing system, instead of maintaining a bespoke scheduler layer on top of it. It's a good case study in a pattern I see a lot in mature platform teams: replacing homegrown infrastructure with an increasingly capable open-source primitive once the ecosystem catches up to what you built out of necessity years earlier. Useful if you're running batch or ML workloads on Kubernetes and wondering whether you still need your own queueing layer.
