- intrepidsoldier 2y agoFair point. I agree that K8s is not quite IaaS as I talked about here: https://ramansharma.substack.com/p/multiple-stops-on-the-cloud-compute-continuum-all-with-their-own-merits-6b921ed82f2 https://ramansharma.substack.com/p/multiple-stops-on-the-clo... But I think several of its characteristics resemble IaaS more than PaaS.

I disagree, but I understand why someone would think that, and if I were given an assignment to argue the point then I could probably convince people that K8S is IaaS, too. BUT, I think it's important for us to recognize that K8S is a platform, and by definition, anybody providing you that platform as a service has provided you a PaaS. Maybe we should just say people don't want IaaS or PaaS, they want Kubernetes as a Managed Platform, or KaaMP! And who doesn't like camp?!
