Ok, but have you ever tried to deploy docker compose on production. How did it scale for you?

You missed the point. Kompose will generate the Kubernetes config and it can even bring up your application using "kompose up" command. Have some faith and read more about it on kompose.io and use it

Quick correction, Docker 17.03 supports compose files out of the box, in swarm mode. Two commands to deploy and scale. https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/stack_d...

This.

GP comment was downvoted into oblivion, but he had a point. Compose (at least, v3/v3.1) is a reasonably simple system, that can describe a fairly complex setup. Kubernetes has a lot of complexity to it. And the question "why do I need it, if there are simpler options?" is left unanswered.

Until you end up working around various shortcomings and then suddenly your yaml files are a mess and almost a framework in themselves.

The Kubernetes files really arent that complex
