Good for them! They beat AWS to it. Amazon's managed Kubernetes service is in the preview stage but should also be launched soon.

How do people like Kubernetes as a production ready solution to deploy containers? I've been using Docker for a while now, just starting to mess with k8s.

Same as DO?

"DigitalOcean Kubernetes will be available through an early access program starting in June with general availability planned for later this year."

I'm not sure which will be first.

I had originally heard Q2 for public launch of EKS Fargate, but officially Amazon is just saying:

> * AWS Fargate support for Amazon EKS will be available in 2018.

https://aws.amazon.com/fargate/

I resisted Kubernetes for a long time, but now that I've started using it, I think it's definitely the way to go.
