One of the issues is that the open source Helm charts (or whatever) for something like Grafana do not come out-of-the-box with good config. I spent a significant amount of time a little while ago reading blogs to get Grafana to use up to date indexing algorithms, and better settings, etc.

- EdwardDiego 10mo agoI like to use operators for intra-cluster infra, they tend to offer a "sorta-managed" experience. I'll use a Helm chart deployed by ArgoCD to provision the operator, then go from there - mainly because I try to limit Helm usage as much as possible.
- liampulles 10mo agoIts a tradeoff, because operators will use some of your cluster's resources of course, but I get you.
