Kubernetes for running a blog (or multiple) is fantastic... if you are already using Kubernetes for other things.
If it's for just the blog, and the only goal is to run the blog, then it is (almost definitely) overkill.
If you already have a cluster up, or have a bunch of other projects already running on the cluster, then Kubernetes is likely the easiest way to run a blog.
- paxys 6y agoThe reverse is true as well though. If you learn Kubernetes and set up a cluster to host a blog, you'll find that it is now trivial to deploy a hundred other things to it.
- nrmitchi 6y agoFor sure. > and the only goal is to run the blog If part of the end of of "run by blog on Kubernetes" is "I want to use this as a learning experience to run other things on Kubernetes afterwards" it's definitely a worth-while exercise. > you'll find that it is now trivial to deploy a hundred other things to it. I mean, sort of. Starting with a blog is a good introduction and gives an on ramp to running other services, but I wouldn't say it is sufficient experience to call running hundreds of other services "trivial".
