This text was taken from the book and a Udemy course The DevOps Toolkit: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints
Should we use managed Containers as a Service (CaaS)? That must be the most crucial question we should try to answer. Unfortunately, it is hard to provide a universal answer since the solutions differ significantly from one provider to another.
