The size of the slack channel alludes to the size of the eco-system, and the scale at which Kubernetes is solving not just technical coding problems, but non-technical communication problems

You can solve container orchestration problems using Kubernetes, but you can also solve them using Swarm, Nomad and Mesos.

Kubernetes is the most popular, precisely because it is not over-engineered, the level of engineering matches the problem domain.

Kubernetes isn't the source of complexity - it is the problem domain of building and operating distributed systems that are fundamentally and essentially complex.

Compare the complexity of Kubernetes to Openstack - the next most similar project in the same problem space, and you will find Kubernetes is actually pretty simple.

OpenStack and Kubernetes serve different purposes. Despite the article, Kubernetes at its core really is a container orchestrator. OpenStack is a collection of software you'd use for running a mini-AWS on bare metal infrastructure.

OpenStack and Kubernetes don't serve different purposes - they just solve them differently.

Both fundamentally are about abstracting the way in which infrastructure is managed.

Well you can't run OpenStack on Kubernetes, but the other way round works. They target infrastructure at different levels of abstraction

I think you meant OpenShift. OpenStack works with full fledge VMs not containers.

I meant OpenStack.

Kubernetes works with fully-fledged VM's as well - See Kubevirt

Sure, https://github.com/Azure/draft doesn't require any YAML and deploys onto Kubernetes.

I remember someone also doing a demo of configuring your kubernetes deployment on your Java objects directly.

I think this post misses the point of where kubernetes brings value the most: multi-team environments. If you are a single-team, then nomad, non-distributed docker, systemd units, etc is probably a better choice today due to the operational complexity of running Kubernetes (GKE,AKS,EKS do lower the complexity, but you still need kubernetes experts on call)

However if you are in an organization with multiple teams (as are the vast majority of developers) then Kubernetes provides a common language for deploying, operating and securing your applications which enables you to go from a process which could takes days, weeks or even months to provision and configure a VM to minutes or hours to provision a kubernetes namespace.
