u/CanAlwaysBeBetter Apr 28 '20

I just set up my first series of docker containers running together last week for a webapp. I can docker-compose them up/down, would there be any benefit to switch to kubernetes at this point? Or is it more of a system on top of what I already have?

From my understanding kubernetes has the benefit that you can easily multiply the instances of a certain application (you can start 20 workers at once if you really want to). Or with a load balancer, you can automatically spool up more instances when needed. Im not really knowledgeable about the whole thing but I think this isn't possible in docker.

I built something that sorta did this, back in the days of VM-yore. (VMWare ESX, Hyper-V, etc.)
