Some of us have problems that are actually well solved by these tools and run on more sophisticated hardware than our home computer... It doesn't sound like you've hit that set of problems.
- denton-scratch 7y agoYeah, thanks. It's a home computer because I don't work any more - I set-up and operated a continuous production VM pipeline on my boss's rack, back when I had a boss. Docker had turned up; I evaluated it (quite briefly - I had work to do, and nobody had asked me to evaluate Docker). We had fairly specific requirements that I couldn't match to Docker. I recall now that Kubernetes is principally a deployment system - sorry. Perhaps it is well-integrated with some container systems, such as Docker. Kubernetes didn't exist when I had a boss. I use Ansible. I get that LXC is not very friendly. But it works OK, doesn't it? Just wrap a shiny skin around it. Don't re-invent the wheel; we already have enough wheel inventions. I'm not by any means knowledgeable about containers; I evaluated LXC way back when, and decided that VMs were more secure. And never revisited that decision.
