Exactly. That's a great way to put it. A bunch of Bash glue reimplementing what Kubernetes already does. Poorly.


Kubernetes is outstanding because proving ol bash scripts were bad and re-writing all Bash glue in Go glue, slapping 150 APIs on top (60 "new" and about hundred "old versions" https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubernetes-ap...), adding few dozen opensource must have projects - so finally it can be called "cloud native" - boom, a new cloud native bash for the cloud is born!


Actually it's worse than that - k8s was ported from Java, and the codebase is an incoherent mess, as k8s devs say themselves


Bash glue has rarely failed me. Never used k8s, but the horror stories I hear ensure I won’t feel dirty for writing a little bash to solve problems anytime soon.
