Kubernetes is an amazing orchestration service. If you know Kubernetes, you can transition relatively easily between Azure’s AKS, Amazon’s EKS, and Google’s GKE.

Docker is not suited to run inside itself, and Kubernetes orchestrates Docker containers. So if your pipeline needs Docker to build an image and your pipeline is run under Kubernetes, you need to run Docker inside of Docker, which gives me a headache just thinking about.

This isn’t an issue with Kubernetes per se, but it still is an impediment to taking advantage of container orchestration in a development environment.
