I am also interested in knowing this.
Also, can Kubernetes be used to deploy to a single VPS instance (e.g: a 10$ Digital Ocean droplet) or is it only for a multi-node system like GKE?
- raesene9 9y agoWhilst you could deploy k8s to a single node, it's massive overkill for that kind of solution. The benefit I see in it is orchestration of large clusters of containers. The offset against that benefit is that there's quite a lot of complexity involved. For single node solutions, if you want to use containers at all, I'd just use docker.
- t3h2mas 9y agoI agree with raesene9 here. Docker plus a proxy (haproxy, traffaek, and docker-flow-proxy come to mind) would do the trick.
- cgag 9y agoYou can use GKE with a single node if it's big enough (it won't let you do it with the absolute smallest instance). I do it because I just like the k8s model for deploying apps. If any of my sideprojects deployed there ever start to matter I'll scale it up.
