    I feel like there have been more kubernetes hate going around recently. Have I been living under a rock and missed some major change around docker, docker compose and docker swarm that gives doubt to using kubernetes?

      Kubernetes solves a problem for very large scale the kind that Google has. However, it’s complete overkill for most use cases. It’s an incredibly complex tool that takes a lot of skill to use properly and it’s completely unnecessary for most applications. As a corollary, I find there’s an obsession with aggressively applying microservice architecture nowadays which introduces a huge amount of orchestration overhead.
