Kubernetes starts with a 100-node claim in 2015 but proves it insufficient, replacing vague thresholds with explicit SLIs/SLOs: original rules (API responsiveness 99% <1s, pod startup 99% <5s) expose poor coverage and precision, so a 2017 product-surface doc and the concepts of scalability dimensions and scalability envelope emerge. Current official SLOs cover mutating/read API latency and pod startup with a 5,000-node limit, use per-resource streams and 99th percentile over 5 minutes, and several networking/storage SLIs remain "working progress" measured in synthetic benchmarks.
