It certainly feels like Netflix is now a k8s shop.
And it probably only a matter of time until they start repatriating workloads to optimize for costs. Then the world will sit up and notice.
I don’t get what you’re implying. What is repatriating; You think they will move their workloads to on-prem?
Is there something different about the world that changed the trade-off calculus for cloud vs on-prem from how it was in the last 15 years compared to now?
(I’m as anti-cloud-overspend as the next guy on hn btw. Just trying to make sense of your comment’s worldview.)
Yes, coding agents have reduced the skills/knowledge required to operate workloads on virtualized hardware. K8S and its ecosystem has changed so that it now provides 90% of what you need from the public cloud providers. Big changes that make 8-15X savings by running your own workloads.
I think it will be the big players who move first, as they have most to save and have the resources to make it happen.
