Better bleeding edge than end-of-life. We're using Marathon, and suddenly the entire UI is end-of-life, and your options are "use Marathon back-end only without a UI" or "migrate to DC/OS" which is even more opinionated than K8s. I think the real tell is that Mesosphere don't have the cash/people to maintain a non-DC/OS UI for marathon, and there isn't a community able/willing to do it for them.
- XorNot 10y agoAbout a year ago there was a decision made in our project to "just use Marathon" (our technical lead has a bit of a tendency to declare things as simple, without thinking too hard about operational problems) - a year later (...don't ask...) and I very much have the feeling we've backed the wrong horse. Conversely...I'm deeply suspicious of excited discussions of distributed systems these days because it doesn't seem like a lot of people are truly running them "at scale" - there's not a lot of write-ups about how people handle 300+ node clusters, and probably more importantly how they handle them (how do their internal users use them).
