Have been working with the kubernetes teams on slack. Kubernetes is definitely building a lot of the right things ground up, but its like Hbase vs Cassandra - the former needs a full time dedicated team to get stuff working.

Docker Swarm (especially 1.13 https://www.infoq.com/news/2017/01/docker-1.13) is like Cassandra for me. Yes it has a few shortcomings, but it allows you to have a fairly reasonable cluster using a stupid compose.yml file and very quickly.
