Which is what Kubernetes is based on.
- jmillikin 4y agoKubernetes is based on Omega, which was an attempt to replace Borg using a more distributed architecture. Borg uses a single master with elections, with the replicas serving as hot spares. Source: I was on Borg-SRE at Google for ~six years, then worked with Kubernetes at Stripe for ~five.
- eep_social 4y agoYup, and while ISTR that Omega did (eventually) get rolled out, no one ever called it anything but Borg so you’re the best kind of correct :)
