Have you tried cloud run on GCP? It sits in the niche you're describing between a serverless platform and some managed container orchestration platform like kubernetes (GKE or EKS).
- zackmorris 6y agoDoes that use Cloud Run? I haven't tried Google cloud yet because I thought I'd have to learn Kubernetes. I have an aversion to learning Kubernetes because I still can't figure out what problem it's trying to solve. Admittedly, I probably haven't gotten far enough with cloud hosting to know what limitations I'll hit yet though. Some ok answers here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55786955/whats-the-value-proposition-of-running-cloud-run-versus-a-normal-service-in-gke https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55786955/whats-the-value... The computer science part of me just looks at a Docker swarm as a big graph. We should be able to balance a load if we just know the remaining CPU capacity of each container. But I look at the astonishing complexity of all this stuff (not to pick on k8s too much) and my first thought is: never have I seen so much code do so little!
