> I know: I’ll create a triple zoned redundant architecture with pub/sub database replication, a 32 node Kubernetes cluster and private networking across all regions – that way, I can handle anything! Well, maybe not a 32 node k8s cluster. However, spinning up K8s clusters is so easy now, that it costs almost no time to deploy stuff there. And so many things are taken care for you: configuration, secret storage, networking, versioning, keeping services up, etc. If on AWS, there's Kops. If on GCP, that's even easier, a couple of clicks and you have a cluster.
