I feel like there have been more kubernetes hate going around recently. Have I been living under a rock and missed some major change around docker, docker compose and docker swarm that gives doubt to using kubernetes?
Kubernetes solves a problem for very large scale the kind that Google has. However, it’s complete overkill for most use cases. It’s an incredibly complex tool that takes a lot of skill to use properly and it’s completely unnecessary for most applications. As a corollary, I find there’s an obsession with aggressively applying microservice architecture nowadays which introduces a huge amount of orchestration overhead.
Aside what the other poster said, which I agree with, I think there is also an increasing dislike of Google in general, that may be feeding the undercurrent of the hate you see.
