Re:How we migrated onto K8s in less than 12 months by st3fan on Friday August 09, 2024 @08:32AM (#41201210)
If you don't need any of those things then your use of k8s just becomes simpler.

I find k8s an extremely nice platform to deploy simple things in that don't need any of the advanced features. All you do is package your programs as containers and write a minimal manifest and there you go. You need to learn a few new things, but the things you do not have to worry about that is a really great return.

Nomad is a good contender in that space but I think HashiCorp is letting it slowly become EOL and there are bascially zero Nomad-As-A-Service providers.

If you don't need any of those things, going for a "serverless" option like fargate or whatever other cloud equivalents exist is a far better value prop. Then you never have to worry about k8s support or upgrades (of course, ECS/fargate is shit in its own ways, in particular the deployments being tied to new task definitions...).
