If you need containers on demand, why not just use a simpler service like ECS? There’s a reason k8s is a meme for wasted engineering resources.

Same question here - what about something like AppEngine (or Elastic Beanstalk)?

Responding on behalf of alex at cashflowy since I have some context. The team was originally on Elastic Beanstalk but chose to move to using kubernetes to leverage the rich ecosystem of helm charts. That enabled setup of tools like metabsse etc. very easily. Overall, it was lesser hassle for more functionality since CI/CD was also out of the box, and self-hosting these tools was a breeze with helm charts.

k8s is a meme for wasted engineering resource - yup agree.. not so much with argonaut. Was on EBS for the longest period of time.
