## TL;DR

Kubernetes is an open source platform for operating containerized and distributed systems. This repair removes broad adoption claims and keeps the article grounded in Kubernetes documentation and the ACM Queue history of Borg, Omega, and Kubernetes.

## Core Explanation

The core model is a cluster with a control plane and worker nodes. Kubernetes manages desired state through API objects and controllers, while its design history draws from Google's earlier Borg and Omega systems.
