> Another idea is treating your servers like cattle, not pet. I used to have Linux VMs in my house named after Greek myths – these are pets. I named and loved each of 'em. And yes, after being setup, they worked. In Kubernetes, they're cattle – and you kill your cattle. You don't name and grow to love and nurture a specific VM. You can wipe your deployments and reprovsion a new one in a blink.

Batteries included but swappable
Free as in Beer vs. free as in speech
Are there other contenders?
