is it better than k3s? I found k3s to be a nightmare to keep running. container would be stuck in “starting” and Longhorn storage “volumes” would be degraded, also for no apparent reason. I threw my hands up and went back to docker compose and gitops for running apps.

Personally I still use Docker in Swarm mode with multiple master and worker nodes (total of 6 nodes). With Traefik as LB and Portainer for management. Also a HAProxy in front of it. Also I use a K3s cluster, created with Techno Tim's ansible playbook. For a learning purpose. As for now, I dont see a need to switch to the Kubernetes as Swarm does everything I need.

Wonderfully done video Christian. I've been reading up on Kubernetes in the last month or so and had thought that I'd port all of my applications to a kubernetes cluster some time this year, but after doing more research I started to realize just how deep the Kubernetes rabbit hole goes and started setting up things on Portainer instead about a week ago. I remember seeing a video from another creator targeted at new home-labers that said "If you think you need Kubernetes you don't" that felt very condescending since it didn't explain why that was the case, thus I ended up researching it more. If I had seen your video back then instead, I'm sure I would have picked up Portainer instead and it would have saved me a lot of trouble - I'll be sure to mention your video if these conversations come up. Thanks!

Same wagon here. I have tried k8s on a proof of concept production environment on the cloud and after much struggle and headache I am setting all up on a swarm. I have no doubt that k8s offers more advanced clustering capabilities but if you properly set up your nodes on different availability and fault domains, you actually don’t need anything more than a swarm if you are going to run just a couple dozens of containers. K8s seriously needs an easy, small clustered version if they intend to target small and medium sized business.

Using managed kubernetes (DigitalOcean) was very cool and actually simplified some things from my previous docker-compose setup, but for a homelab, there is no way I would want to deal with setting up a cluster from scratch in a homelab tbh.

i will give my 2cents here, there are 2(3 to be fair) type of homelabs. 1. Media type 2. Calculation type 3ish. Learning type. Most of us will fall into category 3, learning homelab for the sake of learning, but when it come to actual usage, most of the hobbyist will fall into type 1, media server, home automation, or maybe web serve. Where HA and distribution architecture maybe good but not a priority. Hell even an overkill in my opinion. And the second type, where i fall into this category, Using homelab to train AI on Torch, deploy spark job, and data analytic. Where distributed system is a first class in a most of out of shelf products (Kubeflow, YARN, MESOS, Horovod), and i mean why won't you not parallelize your calculation. K8S spin up , manage, and spin down my spark and horovod very nicely. People are shocked when i told i only has 8 core Ryzen and k8s-ing my system.

I'm using k8s during work, but I don't think there is any reason to use it at home. For homelab, swarm is much better IMHO. Yeah, ppl always talk about "swarm is dead", but actually, it is soooo much better in a small environment... Just init a swarm, join a worker or two additional managers, and use network-ed volumes. Also, you can use the same compose files as in "normal" mode, you can use portainer to manage the swarm and you have overlay networks. For a homelab, IMHO, it is the best, because it is almost the same as plain old simple docker.

BGP design access control for load balancer ACL, calico DNS, SSL, SSO, etc. Load balancing is also more complicated than expected when using Kubernetes on-premise. It's a good choice if you're an engineer who wants to learn Kubernetes. Otherwise, just use a solution like Cloud EKS. Of course, experts will have to design it as a hybrid, but Kubernetes is difficult to learn and there are many things to learn. Especially when it comes to on-premise, the number increases.

In a homelab, unless you need to learn k8s, there's very little reason to step in that mess. I'd say vmware is bloated, too. (modern vcenter certainly is) But the actual hypervisor (esxi) is very small, and really simple, but it's not a container platform.
