Yeah, thanks for sharing your experiences on that.

Unfortunately our egress costs would likely be significant.

I am honestly anxious to get my employer started on the path to k8s, but until the tooling reduces the hours required to maintain it successfully, Swarm seems like the superior solution if you are locked in on a non-GKE/Azure Container Service provider.

I have heard good things about Kops helping setup/enable production-stable orchestration, but they are not ready yet for Digital Ocean either, although I think it is on the list™.

Pivotal and Google built Kubo (recently renamed to the less memorable Cloudfoundry Container Runtime[0]) to make the deployment/management/upgrade thing easier. It's built on top of BOSH, which has a relatively long track record in managing stateful, long-lived, distributed systems on top of IaaSes.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal.

Digital Ocean recently announced a partnering with a Kubernetes vendor. You can run managed K8S on DO now.
