When people talk about companies using k8s too soon, they are talking about deploying it on your own, not using a hosted service like GCE. That’s a whole new ball game and takes 100x the effort.

- theptip 7y agoI read TFA as mostly complaining about the conceptual and operational complexity of running your code on k8s, not so much about operating a cluster itself. Lots of ink spilled on irrelevant concepts that most users don't need to know or care about like EndpointSlices. And, arguing against microservices is a reasonable position -- but IF you have made that architectural choice, then Docker-for-Mac + the built-in kubernetes cluster is the most developer-friendly way of working on microservices that I am aware of. So a bit of a non-sequiteur there.
- jiofih 7y agoI don’t see when you’d need to understand what an EndpointSlice is, unless running k8s itself. The concept does not leak through any of the pod management interfaces.
