Someone in our institute thought shifting the FTP service to single pod deployments with no auto-scaling was a good idea. They were wrong.

- wmichelin 4y agoCan they just... setup autoscaling? Hopefully the mistake wasn't too hard to correct.
- 6LLvveMx2koXfwn 4y agoMaybe, but introducing several layers of abstraction was never going to be the solution if performance was the problem.
- jasonjayr 4y agoWith the port mapping that FTP entails? You'd need a k8s aware FTP service that creates load balanced ports on demand. Which sounds like it could get thorny and complicated compared to a pair of AWS EC2 instances over an S3 filesystem (Or use AWS's hosted FTP service?)
