Took me a couple weeks to get everything migrated but finally I’m free of bare metal k8s hell.

Oddly I was even able to reduce costs by having less nodes running 24/7.

Now back to something a bit more entertaining… nostr:note1wt04npdy3hu2vmkzglt4qsugjy5vey2grddgp6jtgje3nmg2nnfsn9n8k2

k8s is considered "bare metal" these days?

You can run your own cluster on bare metal yes.

On most clouds this was too expensive to run when I originally set it up so was forced to build my own but with more competition now I’ve found a managed solution that’s cost effective.

Oh that way. What's your provider? I'm on DigitalOcean, Vultr and Tencent.

Vultr and DigitalOcean clearly are second tier providers. Require the occasional node reboot and other manual interventions.

This wouldn't happen with first tier providers like AWS or Azure which I use at work.

Irony I am migrating K8S images from VMware hosts to bare metal for performance and due to the Broadcom mess.

Hope I’m not diving in to a new disaster 😂
