I remember when Docker and K8 emerged and YAGNI kept everything in perspective. Unless you had a fleet of hundreds of servers to manage and spin-up at a moment's notice you just used Chef, Puppet or Ansible. Now nothing's too small for this ridiculously over-engineered technology. Got a WordPress blog? You're doing it wrong if you don't put it in a Docker container and launch it with K8. Same with a lot of Rails projects for which Capistrano was more than aadequate. Just gotta scratch that itch until you've no more skin left.
