Is this effectively v3 of Thunderhead? Good to see the pivot towards using k8s, the 20+ minute propping of a 1-2GB container on vanilla Playfab/THv2 really made it a non starter for our company's internal playtesting.

Also is Hesky still around these days?

Yup, he is still around :) I'd call Thundernetes a "spin-off" more than a pivot, tailored to the folks that want full control over their game servers, compared to the more "SaaS" model of MPS (code name "Thunderhead"). Have you tried the MPS service recently? We've done lots of work to improve startup times.
