However, that does not work with Kubernetes, it only works when we are working with jars as the Spring Cloud Data Flow applications."
"Some of the features, like the monitoring tools, are not very mature and are still evolving."
"On the tool's online discussion forums, you may get stuck with an issue, making it an area where improvements are required."
