Kubernetes by Example
First, please consider whether you <i>actually need</i> any of the Kubernetes stuff. The odds are that you don&#x27;t. A huge number of people are switching to k8s just because it&#x27;s the cool thing to do, without understanding any of the implications. Most companies have to undergo major software rearchitectures and renovations to make good use of the featureset that Kubernetes promises.<p>Second, <i>please</i> don&#x27;t run a database in it, omg. See point one. If there were just one application that is not reasonable to run in a container, it would be a database.<p>Third, yes, this seems to be the new way things happen in the software world. I&#x27;m worried about what tools we&#x27;ll need to develop to overcome the cacophony of noise and half-solutions that is incumbent in the GitHub era.
