Container technologies at Coinbase: Why Kubernetes is not part of our stack

AWS's version is pretty half-baked. You can't provision or use persistent volumes (so no stateful apps), and you have to use their load balancer which terminates TLS (preventing your software from being able to do ALPN, using Let's Encrypt, supporting HTTP/3, etc.).

Cloud Run just seems like standard "serverless" stuff, nothing to do with Kubernetes. (The downsides involve not being able to run applications that are designed to run on a generic Linux box; everything has to be specially developed. That is fine, and they have open-sourced all the tools necessary to move off of them so you aren't locked in, but it's a bigger paradigm shift.)

I use Cloud Run and nothing is specially developed for it, other than just being stateless. I can take my container and run it on a generic Linux box with zero changes (in fact, I run it in WSL2 on my Windows machine all the time). And I just install the normal Node.js, imagemagick, etc in my Dockerfile, no special builds or flags.

That sounds pretty compelling then.

Cloud Run uses KNative which is a stateless extension of k8s
