3 Things I Hate About Kubernetes

Anyone who knows me, or who has read my work, knows that I can not shut up about Kubernetes. In fact, they are probably part of a betting pool about how often I say that word.

I am not sorry, though. The abstraction it offers makes my job far easier and, in general, it is a reliable force-multiplier for any DevOps team. With anything, however, we have to take the good with the bad, and Kubernetes presents plenty of formidable challenges for new users trying to learn how to use it. In my 3+ years of working with Kubernetes I have faced several such trials, with a couple standing out as very memorable headaches. As a word of caution and guidance for new folks, I have compiled a list of what I think are the worst Kubernetes nuisances.
