I have heard of people taking "years" to migrate to kube but only on HN and only on company who's timelines for "lets paint the walls of our buildings" stretch into the decades. But, even once you move, you get benefits that other systems don't have.
1. Off the shelf software (even from major vendors [0])
2. Hireable skill set: You can now find engineers who have used kubernetes. You can't find people who've already used your custom shell scripts.
3. Best practices for free: zero-downtime deploys can now be a real thing for you.
4. Build controllers/operators for your business concepts: rather than manually manage things make your software declaratively configured.
