I find that in Kubernetes I do a great deal of tedious boilerplate work. Sometimes I just want to run some damn software and let the platform do the boring stuff.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal, we have a hand in a few such things.

I've tried that, but then been burned by PaaS switching things up in unexpected ways. Best to make the investment and just own it. I absolutely share the sentiment, though.

Good news is, it only took me a week to really pick up k8s.

Kubernetes switches things up a bit too.

But before it existed I could type `cf push` and get a running app with automatic routing, logging and service injection.

Whereas nowadays I have to type `cf push` and get a running app with automatic routing, logging and service injection.
