There is varying support for Kubernetes resources in both and all kinds of vendor-specific ways you need to do things to keep you locked in.
Every single managed Kubernetes solution available is a unique, special snowflake. Most folks in-house ones are the same. Saying that Kubernetes isn't some bespoke solution is a myth.
Kubernetes is a collection of haphazardly-assembled components in varying states of maturity and that landscape changes dramatically with minor release versions (GKE's Stable release branch is still 1.13, for example). YMMV.
- pm90 7y agoGive specific problems you see and I will give you a reasoned reply. I will not engage with hyperbole devoid of facts.
- busterarm 7y agoIt's help I don't need and didn't ask for. I'm managing several million dollars worth of infrastructure in both. I gave enough detail that anyone familiar enough with both platforms should know some of the issues I'm talking about already.
- pm90 7y agoYou did not.
- busterarm 7y ago> There is varying support for Kubernetes resources I dunno, EKS not having built-in support for Ingress objects is a pretty large and obvious elephant in the room. I'm not playing this game. I've stated my experiences and suggested the level of interaction I've had with the platforms in dollar figures enough to be comfortable with what I'm saying here.
- pm90 7y ago> I dunno, EKS not having built-in support for Ingress objects is a pretty large and obvious elephant in the room. Which is actually not a big deal. K8s ingress objects are not very flexible, and most users in my experience tend to use customized solutions (e.g. ambassador) where you use a Network Load Balancer. Ingress objects are fully supported in GKE. > I'm not playing this game. I've stated my experiences and suggested the level of interaction I've had with the platforms in dollar figures enough to be comfortable with what I'm saying here. You started playing this "game" by dropping numbers on how many $$s you've managed and asking that other believe you because of that. I was simply asking you to provide specific instances of the pain you're stating you see. The one instance you've provided isn't really that big of a deal.
