Interesting move by Canonical. Wonder if this is related to the new GUI for LXD that Canonical released recently? Or maybe they want to bring more projects in-house after the RHEL shakeup?
Ah, ok, understood then, it didn’t fit my use-case or workflow, it works for others, my bad, appreciate the correction!
Not a correction, it has its uses :) I would never deploy a web app and its API, database etc. using LXD, makes no sense, k8s is way better for that.
I do that with lxd, but I have written ansible playbooks (almost like dockerfile? ) to automate the lxd containers. You could probably write some automation for scaling as well, but not something I’ve done, I have just opted for high availability with ceph & keepalived. Whatever works for your use case :) I do use some docker, but this is still nested inside lxd…
I also do playbooks to deploy stuff some stuff with LXD, but my end users only like Docker so, I kind of setup the infrastructure that allows them to deploy Docker on top of LXD containers that are deployed using Ansible.
