Hi! I'm Rohan, a Full Stack Software Engineer, with a background of working with Deep Learning and AI, who loves to use his skills to create products that are at the intersection of all of these!
I’ve only used docker-compose for local development. It works fine for that and is an order of magnitude simpler than k8s. I don’t really think of it as being container-orchestration and more as “portable dev environment” but I may be ignorant of its capabilities.
Any type of orchestration adds complexity. I’d avoid it in general unless there was a clear, painful need.
A great read!
Question, do you think Docker-Compose suffers from similar disadvantages? is this a problem with container orchestration in general?
Also, I bet K8s might have left you with some scars, any battle stories for us?

No real k8s battle stories, but this was an interesting problem: dev.to/liquid_chickens/kubernetes-...
