Isn't someone who played with e.g. k8s more likely to understand scaling than someone who never cared about it though?

- Gigablah 8y agoThat's kinda like saying people who use postgres understand query performance more than people who use mysql.
- TomMarius 8y agoI think it's more like postgres vs csv.
- mmt 8y ago> people who use postgres understand query performance more than people who use mysql This statement strikes me as likely to be true, at least for database non-experts. It was certainly true for me. I didn't have anything approaching a decent understanding of query performance until I discovered posgresql's EXPLAIN and, perhaps more importantly, EXPLAIN ANALYZE.
- geggam 8y agoI think the opposite. K8s hides so many things under layers of NAT that you really dont understand what does and doesnt work. The 5-15 issue is a self inflicted wound k8s brings to the party that is quite interesting to work around https://tech.xing.com/a-reason-for-unexplained-connection-timeouts-on-kubernetes-docker-abd041cf7e02?gi=a4d1d9a43f4d https://tech.xing.com/a-reason-for-unexplained-connection-ti...
- ex_amazon_sde 8y agok8s hides away some scalability problems and does not address many others. Most real scalability issues exist on lower levels and require more theoretical thinking than experimenting with tools.
