I don’t think scale is the only consideration for using Kubernetes. The ops overhead in managing traditional infrastructure, especially if you’re a large enterprise, drops massively if you really buy into cloud native. Kubernetes converges application orchestration, job scheduling, scaling, monitoring/observability, networking, load balancing, certificate management, storage management, compute provisioning - and more. In a typical enterprise, doing all this requires multiple teams. Changes are request driven and take forever. Operating systems need to be patched. This all happens after hours and costs time and money. When properly implemented and backed by the right level of stakeholder, I’ve seen orgs move to business day maintenance, while gaining the confidence to release during peak times. It’s not just about scale, it’s about converging traditional infra practices into a single, declarative and eventually consistent platform that handles it all for you.
