Coming from a long career in ops and systems administration, k8s was very straightforward to learn. All the complexity is in automating the things that I’ve already had to know how to do - scaling, failover, resource planning, etc etc.
- fiddlerwoaroof 5y agoYeah, this stuff is complicated any way you go: puppet, chef, ansible, Cloudformation/CDK, Terraform, K8s all have non-zero learning curves.
- pknomad 5y agoYou're trading for structured environment at the cost of complexity for sure, but I think there's something to be said about the degree of complexity. Ansible for example only requires python + some handful library + ssh connection whereas Chef/Puppet requires agent install + SSL for correct functionality.
