"They do not have a very good virtual network implemented, and the VPC is the most important feature that needs to be improved."

"I would like to see a more user-friendly deployment process in the next release of this solution."

"Tanzu could provide more granular control over whatever networking is being done on the containers. I would also like to see a slightly more detailed view of application-level tracing. I'm referring to the connections between different microservices. If they added a service-matching feature, that would be helpful for the customers to build or be more effective."
