Considering I spend $5 a month on my digitalocean droplet that runs docker 1.11 and a bunch of containers (nothing consequential though), and Gondor wants $100 for their entry-level "dev" tier...
- minimaxir 10y agoPresumably if you're looking into Kubernetes, your workload demands require more than 512MB of memory and single-core processing.
- ageofwant 10y agoOf course. But you may also correctly presume that I'll question why this would cost US$100/m for a "dev" offering. Considering what I can get for that from the other incumbents.
- minimaxir 10y agoYou're referring to the pricing on Gondor (https://gondor.io/ https://gondor.io/) which is not the same as Kel linked in the OP. It appears that Gondor is a managed PaaS, which can justify the additional cost for businesses with capital. It is likely not intended for hobbyists.
- Others 10y agoKel is a sort of replacement for Gondor, as far as I can tell: https://gondor.io/blog/2016/04/21/goodbye-gondor-hello-kel-eldarion-cloud/ https://gondor.io/blog/2016/04/21/goodbye-gondor-hello-kel-e...
- djvdorp 10y agoSome more background info here regarding Kel and it's relation to Gondor by Brian Rosner, the main dev of both Gondor and Kel as far as I can tell: https://brosner.com/blog/2016/05/05/kel/ https://brosner.com/blog/2016/05/05/kel/
- ownagefool 10y agoI dunno, free failover is pretty enticing. But obviously one can just buy some GKE.
