Agreed 100x. I find it very hard to understand why some people talk themselves into thinking they need a distributed container orchestration and management platform, when they don’t have a container orchestration problem: they just want to run an app or two with a DB under it.

We need to go back and understand the problem we’re trying to solve, and for 99% of smallish companies and projects this is not container orchestration or hardware resource abstraction.

And most often all those app or two are doing is converting JSON to SQL and SQL to JSON actually. And PostgREST would be pretty much enough for that.
