It is. K8s is an incredible tool but the expertise and time commitment to leverage it are too costly for many indie hackers, startups, and small businesses. You can reap the benefits without having to touch it. You can set up your Dev, Staging, and Production in a few minutes - pull your image from Dockerhub and then docker push all your updates directly into your cloud environment.

Ah, now I understand "bury" Kubernetes. I like this idea and agree on expertise. I want to use Kubernetes but I'm a developer, not a DevOps engineer. I also like Docker :)

AppOps is for developers on Kubernetes, so you can own your code full life cycle. DevOps now builds and maintains the shared pieces (logmon i.e.) and supports developers.
