Ask HN: Who is using Kubernetes in Production?
Who is using Kubernetes in production? I ran it at $job-1. It was fantastic once setup. We never had any issues with it and it autoscaled wonderfully. The devs never had any issues of needing ops to add libraries/modules to servers. They just built them in their containers on dev and if it worked there the same Dockerfile was pushed to prod. I am thinking about getting started on running it in production. I'd love to hear anecdotal stories with detail. You'd help me out a lot if you'd describe when you deployed it, what platform you used, how long it took, what phases or evolutions you went through, and what the biggest challenges were (people, technical, software, operational procedures, etc) - Thanks!! I'm running kube in production with relative small challanges. The most of my problems can from the private openstack installation kubernetes was running on. Do you have more information on the setup of kubernetes you are thinking of? Maybe you can get some feedback for it. I am. Also used Mesosphere (Marathon/mesos/chronos...) before in production. Which did you like better and why? I've commented on this many times on HN before...
You can search for my comments. In short. Hands down Kube. No doubt. I am. We run a lot of smaller products so it allows me to easily share resources. It also fits really well into my gitlab ci setup for automated deployments. eggie5.com is on k8s
