Comment Comment by MarquesMa The problem is there are no sane in-between options.On one end of the spectrum are either neat platforms like Heroku or Vercel or ssh and bear-metal with simple scripts.On the other end of the spectrum, we have Kubernetes.Everything in between:- The learning curve is much steeper than Heroku and Vercel- The skill is not likely to transfer to the next job- The ecosystem is not as complete as KubernetesMost mid-sized companies went for Kubernetes because the in-betweens are not very optimal and need to take some risks on betting them. parent MarquesMa 4 years ago
On one end of the spectrum are either neat platforms like Heroku or Vercel or ssh and bear-metal with simple scripts.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have Kubernetes.
Everything in between:
- The learning curve is much steeper than Heroku and Vercel
- The skill is not likely to transfer to the next job
- The ecosystem is not as complete as Kubernetes
Most mid-sized companies went for Kubernetes because the in-betweens are not very optimal and need to take some risks on betting them.
