Remembering CORBA and glad it never took off: What if Kubernetes is the java of this generation? Java is not yet dying, and for better or worse, do solve organizational problems around code. Kubernetes is likewise becoming a business standard. Look into VMWare, IBM/RedHat and remote service providers offering it as standard. One can write huge books on java, both on the strengths and solutions, but also the weaknesses. For smaller companies and projects, it would probably be overkill to start with the java/JVM monolith, even today. Though java is the reason I jumped off the dev bandwagon, I can defend the language in hindsight, because it do solve several huge "unnecessary" problems other languages/runtimes simply don't address. The operational costs having been hidden away with expensive hardware upgrades. In hindsight, I don't see huge obstacles that the same may be said about Kubernetes in the future. These low-level kinks will be worked out, and provide for the masses what they can't or won't achieve alone. The masses don't need Google-scale, but if they can get the 15-year old mature distributed systems tech almost for free, there are several reasons to standardize.
