Decades of work typically. That or just standard parallel deployments, most things Docker is good at would take the average developer many unnecessary hours to reproduce.

Currently there is a maltitude of solutions available on the market that make containers and k8s just a complex and hard to maintain choice.

It all boils down to “what bullshit was my management sold on”.

Promises of “easy to use, easy to replace, cloud-agnostic, doesnt require domain knowledge” etc etc etc.

Its all bullshit. At some point/scale you need experts in the field that cash in a month more than average dev per year.
