I Didn't Need Kubernetes, and You Probably Don't Either

1. clace

   1 26 553 9.6 Go

   Hypermedia based internal tools for teams. Application server for containerized apps. Runbook automation like Rundeck, custom apps like Retool.

   

   Along those lines, I am building https://github.com/claceio/clace for teams to deploy internal tools. It provides a Cloud Run type interface to run containers, including scaling down to zero. It implements an application server than runs containerized apps.

   Since HTMX was mentioned, Clace also makes it easy to build Hypermedia driven apps.

   One thing that might help you in this madness is:

   Type safe, fat finger safe representation of your YAMLs is grossly underrated.

   Docker-compose based Ansible alternative. It hates spiders

   

   I created [misterio](https://github.com/daitangio/misterio) to exactly solve the same issue described in the article.

   So yes, if you have a simple setup you can use a "web" of docker servers.

   But if your needs are just a bit more complex, or you have a mix of different technology (rubyonrails, python flask, java spring boot) and you want to standardize the communication, the security, the performance tracking and so on, K8s is the way.

   The problem is the microservice architecture: the complexity is pushed to the infrastructure by the microservices, and K8s is a super-generic way to solve that complexity.

   It is like unpacking (in a exploding-kitten mode) an application server on the your Intranet.
