January 21, 20224 yr TL;DR: is it possible to have same/similar orchestration capabilities than using Kubernetes? (Controlling the number of replicas per service, healthchecks, readiness, service creation, mapping config settings externally, etc.) Hi community! First of all, I'm sorry if this was asked somewhere, but I have been half a week reading in this forum, on the internet and even watching dozens of YouTube videos trying to see if somebody else ran in my same situation. A little bit of context: I am building a new computer (Ryzen 9 5950x 16c) with the intention to have a couple of VMs (a gaming one and a workstation one), as well as some docker containers working 24/7 (private cloud, NAS, etc). I'd also like to use it for my own development of backend systems on their own containers, and be able to control for example how many replicas for each service I want, push the images to my own private docker registry (that hopefully should be also hosted in this same machine), but I feel that the Docker inner feature in unraid is more simple, and is heavily based on "click and install" apps from the community marketplace. Am I wrong with all this assumptions? Would it be better for me to somehow bypass the inner Docker feature from Unraid, and perhaps leverage on a huge container with k8s on it? Or even in its own VM? The only thing I worry about having it as a VM, is that it will lock resources even if it is not using it, whereas a container only gets what it needs at the moment. Is that also a right assumption?
