OpenStack has begun to feel more of a vendor marketplace with each of them trying to see if you can adopt their flavor. It looks somewhat similar to the large number of the Linux distros that were popular about 10 years ago, except that these are much more opinionated and have serious vendor lock-in possibilities since it relates to enterprise. Kubernetes, on the other hand feels like a harmonious and homogeneous solution to a specific problem.
- dmourati 10y agoI don't know. I got the same feeling at Kubecon with all the booths and their big signs promising to "solve enterprise devops" and "virtualize your network providing seamless connectivity."
- preillyme 10y agoI did as well.
- hueving 10y agoKubernetes has exactly the same issue. The core of openstack compute doesn't have much fragmentation, but all of the flavors come about when you snap in different deployment technologies, different storage backends, different networking backends, etc. Kubernetes is not prescriptive for any of these things either, so it will end up in exactly the same place as openstack with its current trajectory.
