That's not exactly true though. You can do "DevOps" and horizontal scaling (or simply no scaling) by other means too. K8s may be the best for large deployments

- Jach 5y agoIt's still probably a good idea to get familiar with it though if in the near-term you're entering devops or wanting to move off something else. But for everyone else, it'll probably pass and give way to something different. Things come and go all the time, one doesn't need to learn them all, though I'm sure some people find enjoyment in trying their hardest to do so.
