The whole idea here is superlative. +1 for k8s, kubernetes, cloud native, self-hosted, edge-enabled at low cost, no cost. I ran rq and minio for years on k8s, but been watching sqlite as a drop-in-replacement since most of my work has been early stage at or near the edge. Private cloud matters. This is an enabler. We've done too much already in public cloud where many things don't belong. BTLE sensors are perfectly h…
Really interesting. Question: when it comes to running these software on k8s, do you prefer to manage and host yourself, or do you use managed solutions on top of your own infra? (Do you pay for minio support?) Asking from a business perspective - I of course intend to keep developing this, but am also really trying to think through the business case as well.
The answer depends on funding, i.e. in my own never-leaves-my-house case it is always self-host, much like SOC work.
In the case of startup or research lab work (day-job, for lack of a better descriptor). It's frequently a slice of AWS, GCP, or Azure, i.e. 6 figure/mo cloud bills.
I think those two broad cases are worth considering.
