Right, who needs scalability? Each app should have a hard limit of users and just stop acceppting new users when limits are reached.


Yeah scalability is great! Let’s burn through thousands of dollars an hour and give all our money to Amazon/Google/Microsoft

When those pink slips come in, we’ll just go somewhere else and do the same thing!


You know that “scale” existed long before K8s - or even Borg - was a thing, right? I mean, how do you think Google ran before creating them?


yes and mobile phones existed before smartphones, what's the point? So far in terms of scalability nothing beats k8s. And from OpenAI and Google we also see that it even works for high performance use case such as LLM trainings with huge amounts of nodes.
