It's production ready, folks have been running it on production and will be running it on production. Sure it has issues from inside the cluster. But if you secure it and it's not accessible from outside, it's good to go. Probably more secure than trying to run 500 boxes at once.


So you think kubernetes eliminates the need to run hardware or you think it reduces the number of machines ?

I think it adds overhead but does allow you do maximize server density and usage allowing you to use all 500 machines more effectively.

And it adds a plethora of attack vectors


Out of curiousity, Which k8s attack vectors, do you think are particularly concerning?


Yes, it significantly reduces the number of machines. That's the main benefit. You can binpack your pods by sizing it up well and maxing out resources on each machine.


I completely disagree based on multiple deployments at scale. You use more hardware with k8s not less.
