Everything looks hard if you lack the fundamental knowledge.
Doesn't mean that the tool itself is complicated, and spreading propaganda is plain wrong.
Instead, I recommend to read the docs, watch videos and, most important, try it out.
- nikisweeting 6y agoI'm a sysadmin and dev with 10+ years of experience, I've literally written my own cluster container management system, and I've spent probably a hundred hours learning and using kubernetes for months with dozens of services. After a few months I switched everything back to docker compose because it wasn't worth the complexity for our small sized company. k8s is not a magic bullet, it's an incredibly dense and nuanced piece of technology that is only the right solution for a certain class of problems.
- yjftsjthsd-h 6y agoPerhaps most things look hard until you understand them, but that doesn't make the learning curves the same. Having attempted to learn enough docker swarm and k8s to cover the same uses (standard "run a bunch of containers on a homogeneous group of servers to provide a webapp"), and sunk massively more time into k8s and still not figured out major sections of how it's supposed to work, I can assure you that k8s does in fact suck as a beginner, and dismissing valid criticism as propaganda is plain wrong.
