How many containers are you all running? (lemmy.world)

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.

I know using work as an example is cheating, but around 1400-1500 to 5000-6000 depending on load throughout the day.

At home it's 12.

    I was watching a video yesterday where an org was churning 30K containers a day because they didn't profile their application correctly and scaled their containers based on a misunderstanding how Linux deals with CPU scheduling.

    Yeah that shit is more common than people think.

    A big part of the business of cloud providers is that most orgs have no idea how to do shit. Their enterprise consultants are also wildly variable in competence.

    There was also a large amount of useless bullshit that I needed to cut down since being hired at my current spot, but the amount of containers is actually warranted. We do have that traffic, which is both happy and sad, since while business is booming, I have to deal with this.
