Beyond ImagePullBackOff: A Stateless, Secret-less Distributed Registry

A CNCF lightning talk on moving beyond ImagePullBackOff with stateless, secret-less distributed registry ideas.

This lightning talk starts from a very familiar Kubernetes failure mode: ImagePullBackOff.

The talk explores what registry access could look like if distribution moved toward stateless and secret-less patterns. It connects Kubernetes image pulls, registry design, credentials, and operational reliability into one platform engineering problem.
