Kubernetes

Container orchestration at scale: pods, deployments, services, ingress — likely future-facing, not current-state.

Why we need this / what value this brings

Automates scheduling, scaling, and self-healing across a fleet of containers — valuable once managing instances by hand becomes the bottleneck.

Once there are enough services/instances that manual container management is genuinely painful — not before.

Consider a managed offering (EKS, GKE) over self-hosting the control plane, and only adopt once a simpler option (ECS/Fargate) has been ruled out.

Realistically: does Localz need K8s before it needs more than one region/multiple backend instances?
