We built a Kubernetes-based WordPress host – feedback welcome

We’ve been working on Trustdom, a WordPress hosting platform built on top of Kubernetes.

The idea came from our frustration with traditional WordPress hosting — scaling is limited, updates and maintenance often cause downtime, and agencies managing multiple sites don’t get much flexibility. Kubernetes gave us a way to approach it differently:

Each site runs in its own namespace for isolation.

MySQL is clustered and replicated

Pods can scale horizontally (multiple per site) when traffic spikes.

Media is stored in S3-compatible storage so pods stay stateless.

CDN is handled via BunnyCDN for global speed.

Right now we’re targeting developers and agencies that want:

Git-based workflows

Zero-downtime updates

Almost limitless scaling

High availability without managing infra themselves

We’d love feedback from the HN crowd:

Does this solve a real pain for you (or your clients)?

What would you want in a “developer-first” WordPress host?

Are there technical choices here you’d challenge?
