Thanks. That makes me feel a lot less stupid. It's much more in line with what I thought.
Kubernetes is a tool large companies use to manage a large number of servers. Google invented it and open-sourced it so now it's free for anyone to use. It's not something people would use for a single website unless it was a huge website that required lots of servers, like FoxNews.com or something.
