Ask HN: What neat/helpful things have you run on your k8s cluster?

5 pointsenos_feedler1 comment

I have a k8s cluster that's been sitting on GCP for a year. I'd rather find some good uses for it then tear it down. What are some of the most useful things you've done with a k8s cluster? If I can get more value out of it, I'll keep it running. Thanks!

I am a freelancer and host some services there:

- my website.

- a jenkins to run some scheduled jobs for me.

- a gogs (selfhosted Git repo).

- sometimes i deploy some customer services on it to present the app to my client.

most important thing that I host there (specially because of GDPR in Europe): nextcloud Within my nextcloud I store my files (Dropbox) my Calendars and Contacts (iCloud) and use the Talk app for adhoc calls (Slack / Hangouts).

To be honest I never understood what GDPR means in terms of "storing contact informations of clients within my phone / icloud" so I decided to have an own Card/CalDav service.
