Deploying containers without k8s?
summary
Argues Kubernetes is overkill for small fleets and shows concrete alternatives using cloud container services and Linux distro tooling, with measurements and examples. Demonstrates using Fedora CoreOS + Ignition + rpm-ostree to provision VMs in under a minute, automatic stable updates with two‑week testing/next/stable streams, rollback via holdback, read‑only root and SELinux enforced, and using podman to run containers. Shows a working deployable artifact for Matrix Synapse and contrasts it with AWS Fargate, Azure Container Instances and Google Cloud Run.
