- alexeldeib 6y agoIt's not weird at all. A prime use case for this is to use Kubernetes itself for the compute layer and orchestrating peripheral AWS components using Kubernetes as the common control plane. You can orchestrate entire application stacks (pods, persistent storage, cloud resources as CRDs) using this approach.
