Last year I worked on deploying docker swarm clusters on prem for a client (their request). I loved how simple it was and yet how much you can tailor it, with additional services like traefik, prometheus, etc etc.

Months into the project and we learned how they are obsoleting it to focus on kube. I was devastated. We had a simple yet effective way of deploying clusters, and now we would need entire teams of CKA just to understand what is going on operationally.

I quit the project eventually, but I think they are just going back to VMs + ansible.
