What’s your business? Do you have product market fit? Do you benefit enough from the three things K8S does well to pay the cost in increased complexity, reduced visibility, and increased toil? If you can’t immediately rattle off those three things, you don’t need it.
Don’t you want to just focus on the problem you’re solving for your customers and not the infrastructure that makes your app go?
Every startup I’ve seen doing k8s should not have been.
Every startup I’ve seen not using k8s didn’t need it. (Except a startup who moved from beanstalk which nobody should ever use, and they could have done better by moving to something like ecs)
I’ve seen a startup lose their entire DevOps team and successfully go a year without it because their core app was on heroku. What’s that worth in dollars? What are those dollars worth in opportunity cost?
