Transcription: a Twitter thread from Gary Bernhardt.

  • You, the one who is reading this! You don't need Kubernetes!
  • Also microservices.
  • Also queues that are separate from your primary database (for most apps).
  • Google cosplay is not business-critical.

Precisely, Gary Bernhardt has given a talk on ideology. I don't think he's precisely someone who thinks in absolutes. It's just preaching that some stuff is (probably) used more than it should. I've seen way, way, way worse projects that over engineered things and made things slow and unmanageable, than the opposite. Of course, everyone has seen different things, and our perceptions are amplified and biased by that.
