Are you using GKE for your production environment? Kubernetes has lots of great features, and definitely imposes some good operational patterns, but it's no panacea, and for those of us who can't put their applications in the cloud (or don't want to) Kubernetes can be a complex beast to integrate. Are you running databases in Kubernetes? Do you have any existing on-prem infrastructure that you want to utilize (or are required to, because sunk costs) to integrate with Kubernetes? Is you company a startup with no existing legacy application that you need to figure out how to containerize before you can even think about getting it into Kubernetes? We've seen benefits from running it, for sure, but I'm honestly not sure if the amount of work it took (and still takes) to make it work for us was worth the ROI. Sometimes I feel like Kubernetes is a play by Google to get everyone using their methodology, but only they can provide the seamless experience of GKE. |
