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.

Running 50 on one machine, four on my fileserver and another on a hacked up hp eliteone (no screen) which runs my 3d printer. Believe my immich container is a nspawn under nixos too.ย 

Some are a wip but the majority are in use. Mostly internal services with a couple internet facing, I've got a good backlog of work to do on some with some refactoring my nixos configs for many too ๐Ÿ˜….ย 

From my Erying ES system:ย

Assuming Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust, how does that run in a container. I was vacillating between installing traditionally, or Docker and decided on the former. So I've always been curious as to how it performed.

My services are quite small (static website, forgejo and a couple more services) but see no performance issues.
