alt Hacker NewsHonestly the main problem is people using k8s for something that's like... a database, and an app, and maybe a second app, that all could be containers or just a systemd service.
And then they hit all the things that make sense in big company with like 40 services but very little in their context and complain that complex thing designed for complex interactions isn't simple

Luckily since I met this guy named Claude most of that complexity has gone away.

But if you want some redundancy, k8s let's you just say run 4 of this, 6 of this on these 3 machines. At least I find it quite straight forward.
The database is more complex since there is storage affinity (I use cockroachDB with local persistent volumes for it) - but stateful is always complicated.
