I'm not going to claim that Kubernetes on bare-metal is easy, but it's certainly doable. And it's worth doing, because of all the ecosystem work that's been built up on Kubernetes over the last several years, everything from observability, to workload scaling, to database management, to multi-datacenter service networking. Switching to something new (MRSK), means throwing that out. How is MRSK 10x better to make it worth losing the ecosystem?
Of course you need full-time admins to babysit your bare-metal Kubernetes clusters. But if you're running bare metal, you made the financial decision that (cost of full-time InfraOps Engineers + cost of bare-metal servers <<< cost of IaaS cloud). So you're already paying for full-time InfraOpEng. In this day and age, is it really reasonable not to expect them to know Kubernetes cluster management as well?
