Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"The most valuable features of Kubernetes have been autoscaling and its resilience mechanisms."
"With the use of our blueprint, my experience with the initial setup has been a ten out of ten where one is difficult and ten is easy."
"You have different pods that interact with each other, so you can identify problems with one pod and replace it."

Room for Improvement

"The platform could be more convenient to use."
"In the financial service sector, I'd rate scalability an eight out of ten. But do it in a controlled manner, not auto-scaling. If your application has a bug and you enable the autoscaler, it will spike your costs. If someone deploys an application with a bug, that's automatically a problem."
"The first time it was a little bit complex to setup the solution."

Pricing

"Microsoft provides reasonable costs for Kubernetes."
"If you have a solid AKS and a solid DevOps process, you'll automatically get an ROI, not just in terms of cost but also in how quickly you can see your business application progress."
"I am using the solution's open-source version."
