There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15 containers and people not wanting to turn the post into a container measuring contest.

But now I am curious, what are your counts? I would guess those of you running k*s would win out by pod scaling

docker ps | wc -l

For those wanting a quick count.

      It depends a lot on what you want to do and a little on what you’re used to. It’s some configuration overhead so it may not be worth the extra hassle if you’re only running a few services (and they don’t have dependency conflicts). IME once you pass a certain complexity level it becomes easier to run new services in containers, but if you’re not sure how they’d benefit your setup, you’re probably fine to not worry about it until it becomes a clear need.
