The document discusses various abstractions that are used for Kubernetes and cloud native development. It introduces abstractions for everyday use like package managers Helm and Kapp. It also discusses abstractions for specific problems like Tekton for CI/CD pipelines. Crossplane is mentioned as providing abstraction of cloud providers and their services. Knative is highlighted as simplifying development and reducing the need to manage infrastructure. The presenters provide examples of composing abstractions and conclude that as abstractions continue to be created, developers need to get accustomed to working with them and understand how new abstractions fit with existing ones.
