alt Hacker NewsAnyone know if Netflix does anything for the k8s storage layer? I imagine they are at the scale where etcd starts to go kaboom? Or maybe they have enough cells where that isn’t a problem?
Given Amazon and Google have their own secret sauce for replacing etcd, I am wondering if Netflix does anything special?

It's possible they are using kine: https://github.com/k3s-io/kine
This runs on AWS managed EKS these days, this talk goes into more detail about Netflix's special sauce around the k8s control plane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaTOiXR2KSM
Netflix actually has much fewer cells than you'd expect btw, their special sauce IMO is federation and using a small subset of k8s APIs.
