> You'll never ever need either Docker or Kubernetes or even the latest and greatest javascript frameworks. I agree with "no need for k8s and the latest JS frameworks", but strongly disagree on not needing Docker. It is extremely useful for setting up separate development instances for your projects - no matter if you're doing PHP development with N different versions of PHP (as some sites may still be stuck at 5.6 while others are already requiring 7.2 due to Composer dependencies) or, worse, nodejs and Java where each project will have its own requirements for node, Tomcat and whatnot. I personally set up one mega-container for each project which runs all the services required - mysql/pgsql for the database, apache as frontend / mod-php, if needed Tomcat - and can simply shut them down when I'm done working on a project instead of having the databases and servers all consuming memory and resources all the time. |
