Could someone explain to me in what why Kubernetes is complex and what alternatives are simpler? I’ve worked on non-k8s systems before and in my experience they all hang together with custom bash/python code which although line-for-line is ‘simpler’ it makes it harder to onboard new people and is less robust (excluding very simple deployments)
K8s is very modular in my experience so if you don’t need something you can easily ignore it and not pay a complexity cost. Nomad does not seem much simpler to me (especially because you basically have to pair it with Consul and Vault)

I am genuinely curious.
