Docker Kanvas: Infrastructure as Design

Docker just launched Kanvas, a visual tool that turns your architecture diagrams into deployable infrastructure. Built on Meshery (CNCF's 6th highest-velocity project), it converts Docker Compose files to Kubernetes manifests and challenges Helm and Kustomize dominance.

In this episode, we explore:
- The dev-to-prod gap that Kanvas solves
- How Meshery Models add semantic understanding to infrastructure
- Designer Mode vs Operator Mode capabilities
- When to use Helm vs Kustomize vs Kanvas
- Practical adoption strategies for platform teams

Whether you're struggling with YAML hell or looking to lower cognitive load for developers, this episode gives you the full technical breakdown.
