Yep. I remember the Openstack consultants swarming to office trying to sell it as a solution and not a giant overhead / problem. Luckily they failed the POC so we did not need to waste our life on a non-issue trying to solve it with a non-solution. Now it is k8s' time to do the same. We will see how far this buzzword train gonna go.
- whatsmyusername 6y agoTBF I like k8s as a service or platform. Once metallb came out to solve the "bare metal load balancer" problem it could deliver the entire product I was looking for. My big issue with it is the underlying complexity and house of cards nature of running your control plane as sidecar containers on your runtime infrastructure. You CAN set it up and run the control plane out of band, but last I looked there wasn't step by step documentation for doing so. I also couldn't find anyone doing it in prod which to me is a nonstarter. If I can't figure it out myself and can't hire for it I'm not doing it. I'm sure it's fine on google cloud, but ECS solves 90% of our problems AND integrates with everything else we're using already.
