The main reason for this has been $reason. Initially I was using minikube which uses VirtualBox to create a ready made cluster which is perfect to learn with. Searching for a home After doing some research and deciding that a hosted solution was far too expensive for my needs, I started to entertain the idea of running my own cluster and to kubernet all my existing services and projects in to one giant auto healing, auto scaling ball of cool.https://jawr.github.io/jl-lu/blog/k8s-a-primer/Sun, 07 Feb 2021 10:08:14 +0900https://jawr.github.io/jl-lu/blog/k8s-a-primer/Kubernetes Much like the film Primer , kubernetes (a ten letter word abbreviated to k8s for reasons) is a complicated tangle of cleverness that can be quite exasperating, but also very fun. There is already swathes of content surrounding how kubernetes came about and how it is useful. I will not add to that mountain.
