I would argue that those were benefits of switching to any containerised infrastructure with an orchestrator, though. You could probably obtain most of those benefits with Nomad or Mesos.
- rco8786 8y agoMaybe. But the question wasn’t about the advantages of k8s over other containerization systems.
- matthewmacleod 8y agoI know, you’re right of course. It’s kinda like all those “we rewrote our Ruby app in Go and it’s 1000x faster so Go is awesome” articles. Containerisation is good for those things, but it’s still possible that Kubernetes is an excessively complex solution to the problem!
- rco8786 8y agoFair enough. To your original comment, I was part of a large transition from bare metal servers and custom rolled CI, deployment, monitoring, etc over to using Mesos and the end result was infinitely more pleasurable and productive to work with as an engineer.
- empath75 8y agoI like nomad but kubernetes just has a lot more tooling available for it. With nomad you’re going to have to come up with a lot of diy solutions.
