Yeah, I think thats the point though. Kubernetes enables the orchestration and observability of a PaaS in a much more flexible way so that you can get all of that while still matching the requirements of your business.

I think Heroku and DigitalOcean App Platform are still going to be popular for small setups (as will things like Amplify) but when you outgrow those (or realize you are paying too much for them) then Kubernetes is a reasonable option.

+1. One benefit I see of Kubernetes is that it can handle pretty much whatever you throw at it, so you can run everything in the one service.

Need to run a bespoke database, yeah it can do that. Need to migrate an old service running in a VM that needs a disk, it can do that too.
