Cecilie 🧙♀️Are there significant pros/cons between running #Kubernetes yourself on virtual machines in the cloud, versus using the cloud provider's managed Kubernetes service?
Asking as a 10-person team with 2-3 ops-y people on it.
Johannes Kastl@cvennevik Do you want to be responsible for the cluster and administer it yourselves? or do you only want to use it?
There might be some restrictions with manager clusters or some limits. But on the other hand less of an administrative burden...
@johanneskastl We need to run our services, and the cluster is a means to that end.
I get that there's a tradeoff, but I figured the benefits might still lean heavily in one direction or the other for our context.
