kubernetes: SO MUCH COMPLEXITY.
If you have a giant app spread across multiple microservices, it definitely could make sense.
For an app I worked on, that was basically divided into two classes of instances: front end rails, and back end api in python/pylons, it was an utter waste of time and energy. Just go with EBS plus a nice base ami and build something useful with all the time you would have wasted on k8s.
- imauld 9y agoFor a setup like that, yeah k8s is probably overkill unless you're planning to further decompose the application. But FWIW k8s != docker. Kubernetes is a piece of software for orchestrating containers and not only docker containers. Most people that are using k8s are using docker but I don't think most people using docker are using k8s (just a guess).
