What's the break-even number of machines you must manage before Kubernetes starts to make sense?
- wavemode 2y agoKubernetes starts to make sense when you don't know the number of machines you need (and therefore desire auto-scaling based on system load).
- lmm 2y agoI'd say 3 or more distinct technology stacks. You can run 200-machine clusters comfortably with lighter tooling if they're all Ruby or all JVM or what have you (and I have), but once your deployment process requires remembering the foibles of 4 different Python build tools it becomes easier to shove it all in Kubernetes.
