Anyone know if Netflix does anything for the k8s storage layer? I imagine they are at the scale where etcd starts to go kaboom? Or maybe they have enough cells where that isn’t a problem?
Given Amazon and Google have their own secret sauce for replacing etcd, I am wondering if Netflix does anything special?
I see Netflix pumping out tech articles but can't help but notice how much worse the UI experience is getting. Video erroring out, general slowness etc.
It certainly feels like Netflix is now a k8s shop.
And it probably only a matter of time until they start repatriating workloads to optimize for costs. Then the world will sit up and notice.
I don’t get what you’re implying. What is repatriating; You think they will move their workloads to on-prem?
Is there something different about the world that changed the trade-off calculus for cloud vs on-prem from how it was in the last 15 years compared to now?
(I’m as anti-cloud-overspend as the next guy on hn btw. Just trying to make sense of your comment’s worldview.)

Did they just give up?
