Our k8s based deployments go so much smoother than our VM based deployments (Ansible). We have centralized logging set up for k8s, but not VMs. We have post-update health checks for k8s pods, but not systemd services. Et cetera.
I understand that. But i already have the code to set up logging and health checks (i basically took the code i did at my previous work, it was open source so no issue here).
Like i said, it is fine, i'm not mad about it, it took some time to understand but i get it now and while still less efficient, i'm way better at it, and when i finish this project the next one will be easier. Also, it is important that the whole team use the same product: it was a good reason to loose one man-month to get me up to date with the rest of the team and facilitate my next "app".
