I don't know about this. I caution people against microservices architecture all the time, but at my company having a scheduler just made sense. We spin up and down queue workers by massive amounts every hour, and doing this with anything besides a scheduler would be really tricky. Granted, we use Nomad, not k8s, but we definitely need a scheduler and definitely are not reaching Google-scale.

It doesn't even have to be some microservices monster, just trying to bin-pack a bunch of different services, even monoliths, onto a fleet of servers. If I did it how the usual "k8s is only for FAANG scale" people tell me to do, I'd go bankrupt ;)
