It's fun for hacking but it won't scale gracefully. It's like saying all you need is create-react-app, usually a few months into the project you understand that

- matsemann 3y agoBut our 6x ec2.small instances could serve the whole country buying public transport tickets every day. The k8s setup at a different place serve like 1/100th the amount of daily purchases, but have over 150 python pods to handle different stuff. Yeah, python is slow, but the complexity of the infrastructure is just insane. Yes, it's infinitely scalable, but we would never need that.
- avbanks 3y agoWhat does that have to do with k8s? They could also have 6 pods spread out on 6 ec2 instances just like you.
