I've been working on Kubernetes stuff for about 5 years now and I have never seen people "organize" their stuff with labels.
It sounds great in theory ("lemme query all my pods in staging", "lemme find secrets by the marketing team") but it's just not used for some reason. I think people like flat organization (e.g. "find deployment X") more than searching by labels.
- stumarkin 5y agoInteresting! Does that present challenges when it comes to monitoring or managing at scale? Or when a project spans multiple clusters?
- webb 5y agoI've actually worked with 100+ companies that use labels heavily. It's way more common when you have multiple engineering teams and nobody everybody knows all projects in a cluster. Also, it's common to start with namespace labels which are generally easier to manage.
