Will Kubernetes Collapse Under the Weight of Its Complexity?
Microsoft Word is also incredibly complex software with decades of development and features, and yet it&#x27;s just a word processor. Everyone uses a small subset of the actual functionality which is why the entire system can be complex and simple at the same time, depending on your needs.<p>It&#x27;s exactly the same with Kubernetes. It&#x27;s just clustering software that ties multiple servers together to give you an PaaS-like workspace to run containers, but there are 1000s of details you can use if you <i>need</i> them to build much more intelligence into operations. If you don&#x27;t need them, you can just run a single container and still benefit from simple declarative deployments and automated oversight.
