I still believe Kubernetes is one of the best tools out there to build scalable systems. But I wish it was more opinionated and less leaky.
Every project I build feels like a Frankenetes made of many subsystems provided by different vendors that struggle to talk to each other.
The day Kubernetes provides curated bundles for common architectures that I can spin up with a few commands, I will be in love with it. For now I have a love/hate relationship with it.
- zoomzoom 4y agoTotally agree that k8s is great, and that it needs deeper coupling to specific common app patterns to be more useful to devs (as opposed to platform teams). IMO a new layer of abstraction above k8s is the right approach, for a variety of reasons. We’re trying to build it at withcoherence.com, please check out our early MVP!
- mathverse 4y agoMy rule of thumb is to go with the project that has the biggest community/support out there UNLESS the other project provides a business critical feature I need. And even then it feels like we can just wait a bit until that feature gets implemented in the one with the biggest community/support.
