Hi Emma, I'm recently new to Rancher but have used other similar tools and recently migrated to using Rancher and am happy with it. Rancher + K8s are essential components for our development process and increased productivity and engineering efficiency. We use it for local development so engineers can easily spin up and build and test microservices in a local desktop environment. Then partnered with our infrastructure team, we can seamlessly go from local environment to deployed environment through CI/CD automations. Hope that helps.

@adamant-processor-11854 , what's the broader goal that led you to shift to Rancher? What did you shift from?

It's just the best platofrom to host a big number of highly available containers on bare metal servers. Rancher 1.6/cattle was also way simpler but rancher 2/rke brings longhorn.

I get the sense that there's still a learning curve associated with multi-cluster orchestration. If there were a tool that enabled you to scale all the containers you needed to in a single cluster (even across distances), would you use it? Or is multiple clusters not really a problem?

Negative? Multi clustering is just to have separate environments, and that "tool that enabled you to scale all the containers you needed to in a single cluster (even across distances)" IS rancher associated with longhorn.
