Kubernetes on the cheap

09 Apr 2019

You can use the fact that Kubernetes allows you to get a stable environment on unstable hardware, so that you can use a bunch of cheap commodity computers to scale your deployments horizontally. A good starting point would be to build your own test cluster.

• Jeff Atwood talks about using co-location in the cloud is just someone elses computer
• Hanselman tells you How to Build a Kubernetes Cluster with ARM Raspberry Pi then run .NET Core on OpenFaas

Another approach is to look into where hosted Kubernetes is more affordable than say EKS.

• kubeadm-aws
• an example where someone used GKE to get hosted Kubernetes for personal projects
