Overall Satisfaction with Kubernetes

We use Kubernetes in a big bare metal cluster, and we are here at the Red Hat summit to talk about a migration directly to OpenShift to create an hybrid infrastructure that can help us to achieve a more resilient services for our clients, actually we got a lot of problem with the limits of k8s, especially with the calico service middleware, when our transactions are with high demand calico gets crazy and reset connections, for example, also we got and issue with the middleware limits, we are running 160 pods for worker, and we got 6 mega hardware workers, that we cant use it fully hardware for the middleware limits, thats the reason we are leaving k8s and working in a migration to OpenShift en AWS

Pros

  • multiples deploys in the same infraestructure
  • escalability of the solution
  • fastes deployments automatized with Ansible

Cons

  • posibility to handle better the hardware limites, if my hardware is very powerfull i cant use it fully because the limites that i explained before
  • this is what we came to do here in Boston, to talk about a ROI for migrate our products to OpenShift
Well, me and me team select Kubernetes for the natural solution and the easily assignation of resources to deploy a solution than could have multiple clients in the same infrastructure, so, for each one client we are running a set of different pods, and that's why we select Kubernetes

Do you think Kubernetes delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Kubernetes's feature set?

Yes

Did Kubernetes live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Kubernetes go as expected?

No

Would you buy Kubernetes again?

Yes

i think that Kubernetes is well suited in multiple deploys schemas where you don't need full access to the hypervisor, for other instances is better to use a virtualization schema, I think that today Kubernetes its a little bit green to move all traditional infrastructure, but for infrastructure oriented to microservices is better than swarm, because you can find better resources online and better support of the community, also works great within the limits
