I remember a guy I used to work with telling me he'd been at a consulting shop and they used Kubernetes for everything - including static marketing sites. I assume it was a combination of resume and bill padding.

I'm using k8s for my static marketing site. It's in the same cluster as my app tho, so I'm not paying extra for it. Don't think I'd do it otherwise.

Oh agreed - that makes sense.

This guy told me it was just shameless over-engineering.
