> Microservices does not mean Kubernetes. The idea that to properly implement microservices, you need to set up a k8s cluster and hire 5 devops guys that keep it running is just flat-out wrong.

You don’t need to use kubernetes but I strongly believe it’s the best choice if you’re not using FaaS. If you pick nomad or bare vms you’ll spend a lot of your time building a framework to deploy/monitor/network/configure etc your services whereas kubernetes has “sane” defaults for all of these

That said - you should use managed kubernetes and not deploy it from scratch
