>Who would you say are in the target audience of Kubernetes?

Everything else - I literally said "K8s is enterprise stuff". Now if we go to specifics then it depends of what the company does, maybe they'd do just fine with Nomad or a managed solution like ECS.

>If you want Kubernetes it's probably a better idea to use a hosted Kubernetes solution like Google's offering.

Well I agree? All of the big companies I've been in used EKS and before EKS was decent there was some maintenance overhead. It'd still be less than the maintenance overhead to maintain the full list of features that K8s provides with Nomad, as Nomad doesn't provide any of those and you'd need to seek solutions outside of the product and try to fit them in.

The same way you'd not buy a car if you're going to drive yourself quarter of a mile once a week, you'd not use such a complex solution to run a few dozen containers.
