There have been a ton of in between options, they just rarely work well for anything outside of a basic use case.
Kubernetes is complex because the reality of what you’re dealing with is complex.
Kubernetes is way better than how we used to do things, not a perfect system but there are a lot of good reasons why it’s built the way it is.
- nkotov 5y agoKubernetes is not the answer to every infrastructure question.
- threeseed 5y agoNobody ever said it was. But if you have lots of containerised applications that needs distribution across multiple nodes then Kubernetes is definitely the answer.
- void_mint 5y ago> Kubernetes is complex because the reality of what you’re dealing with is complex. Passing off complexity instead of reducing it isn't a net-positive though. The purpose of frameworks/libraries/etc is to (considerably) reduce complexity. In Kubernetes, you've replaced a group of specialist engineers with just a different group of specialist engineers.
