Kubernetes, in all its many forms, is a powerful tool for building distributed systems. There’s one big problem though: Out of the box it’s only designed to offer resource-based scaling. If you look at its history (coming from Google’s internal Borg service as a response to AWS), that decision isn’t surprising. Most of the applications and services it was designed to work with were resource-bound, working with large amounts of data, and dependent on memory and CPU.
