What would even be the point of this?
Readit NewsThe timing is pretty uncanny. I just deployed a github page and had a DNS issue because I configured it wrong. I hit "check again" and github went down.
Hope I don't appear in the incident report.
Bad bitbasher bad! :catbonk:

Doesn't anyone on HN use Vivaldi? Or does this news apply to them as well?

Awesome. Can we have stable Linux clients now thanks.

It's funny that you say that because no management and barely any devs actually understand k8s, they understand its a resume bullet point and it sounds like the thing so they go for it.
They don't need to care about k8s. They just need to care about the text file I sent them which has HA/DR rules and other things customers might care about which requires their input / signoff. As a trivial example, as long as they understand that "replicas:1" is bad or that increasing the number means we get more processing power, I can reliably talk to them about important customer-impacting things. It's definitely hard to make your entire infrastructure commmunication-friendly but, back to OP's point, some tools let you do this better than others.

I've been in cloud / IT space for about 15ish years now, and at some point in the last few years I became quite jaded with all the new shiny tech things. I had a lot of trouble buying into the K8s ecosystem when I could do magical wonderous things with SSH and Ansible, and most conversations with my colleagues at the time were unconvincing at best - they would say K8s can do blah blah, and I would point to our Ansible playbooks that were already doing the same thing. The problem for me was less about the differences in technology but more about finding the willingness to learn something just because I have to.
I've since learned to recontextualize these things in terms of people. CI/CD isn't good because it's better than SSH, it's good because people who speak English can understand a simple devops pipeline but not my custom SSH wizardry. It's a way of inviting developers and even non-tech mgmt folks into my arcane world of development / production and allowing them to see what's going on under the hood. My incentive now isn't about what CI/CD tech is better or worse, rather does it allow my team / peers to understand what I'm trying to achieve and join in. And ultimately that's what I get paid to do - I don't get paid to do cool tech stuff, I get paid to make other people's work easier, or at least that's how I see devops / CI/CD. I know I can always find easier ways to do things, but will they necessarily understand them?
Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps.
Not a Kubernetes guy, so perhaps ignorant question. Why would you run 47 clusters?
I thought the point of a Kubernetes clusters is you just throw your workload at it and be happy?
I get you want a few for testing and development etc, and perhaps failover to other provider or similar. But 47?
Entirely possible for an enterprise-y or B2B use-case - some clients might want rigid data / network isolation in a separate account / VPC, plus it reduces the blast radius instead of running everything in one big cluster. There are ways of achieving this in a single cluster with a lot of added complexity, and spinning up a new VPC + K8s might be easier if you have the Terraform modules ready to go.
