Guys Kubernetes is a container platform for multiple nodes. I know it seems hard to understand from the outside, but its really not. You would naturally come up with ALL the same componets if you were to take your container strategy onto multiple computers.

What if you dont need multiple servers? Well go the single node approach and have a flexible, true and tested way to spin up containers, which can and should be able to crash whenever they have to.

Using Containers is pre mature optimization too? maybe I should get my typewriter.

More like grab a damn pen and scrawl out what you actually need. It's flexible and fast, which in many cases suits the situation best.

You seem to have missed the alternative "get a computer" in between there.


well I grew up provisioning and using dedicated servers and nowadays you get much tighter security from the container ecosystem that I would on a dedicated server.

I have just provisioned another bare metal k8s cluster, taking software of dedicated servers and.... well if I dont have to, im not running bare metal anymore in 2022.

If you want to just "get a computer in there" have a look at harvester, its the best of the two worlds
