Gosh, this was hard to parse! I’m still not sure I’ve got it. Do you mean “kubernetes has caused more people to suffer due to going distributed unnecessarily”, or something else?
- boarush 2y agoHad me confused for a second too, but I think it is the former that they meant. K8s has unneeded complexity which is really not required at even decent enough scales, if you've put in enough effort to architect a solution that makes the right calls for your business.
- KaiserPro 2y agoyeah sorry, double negatives. People got burnt by kubernetes, and that pissed in the well of enthusiasm for experimenting with distributed systems
- DrFalkyn 2y agoBecause people, especially Devops, thought k8s was some magic, when all it really does is makes the mechanics easier If you’re architecture is poor k8s won’t help you
