So Kubernetes is only in this architecture because other systems use it and its required by the parent company but not needed.

That's pretty important context.

That's not what I said; sorry if that was not clear. The parent company requires RabbitMQ, we are using Kubernetes because managing 40 microservices without it would be hell. In the article, I only showed 1 user-facing API, but it's actually multiple services, I just did not want to complicate it too much.
