Ask HN: Affordable K8s for individuals?
I currently have a single node root server which runs via Docker several applications (Nextcloud, Synapse, VPN, ...). If I need to apply security patches/updates I need to reboot this machine which takes all my services down. Due to my work as an IT Architect I am familiar with Kubernetes. I kinda like the idea to have a Kubernetes which runs the applications in a HA cluster. The last couple days I tried to create with three root servers and a private empty vlan a cluster myself (based on Microk8s or LXD/Juju). But due to a missing vswitch in this vlan it was for me at least kinda impossible to create a HA Cluster.
So my question basically is, do you guys run your own Kubernetes cluster? And if yes how do you achieve it? Is it affordable? Because buying Azure, AWS and co doesn’t seem like to be affordable for private persons
