Wow, so AWS is actually a better value for you than for most people. Being able to easily script and deploy your infra is hugely valuable when you have so much overhead.

We heavily use Elastic Beanstalk for dozens of running services, and it's amazing. We don't think about infra at all.

But why are you using Kubernetes at all? What problem is it solving for you?

We built a software (Botium Box - https://botium.ai) mainly for On-Premise use, and we delivered as Kubernetes, Openshift, Docker. We added a hosted plan later and thought it would be a good idea to just use managed Kubernetes for this offer as it didn't require much coding changes.

We have to support multiple clouds (Azure and AWS), but with Rancher, it is really easy in usage - setting up new clusters, deploying new services, restarting, logging etc. But now that we built up container technology know-how we are transitioning every service where we don't need the scaling capabilities of Kubernetes to plain old docker-compose on baremetal.

Thanks for the interesting article, didn't know about Nomad and will try it for sure.
