Kubernetes has its own learning curve, but when tools like Karpenter exist it's kinda hard to beat for "auto-scaled compute" that is vendor agnostic. We leverage Karpenter for burst in our vSphere environment as well as our EC2 environment. Karpenter is invoking roughly the same Terraform code in both cases, just using different modules for the particular virtualization. Say we want to go to Azure and GCP -- we add an Azure and GCP module to the same Terraform codebase, and not much else needs to change from the "scale up / scale down" perspective.
