Kubernetes 1.35's Numeric Taints: Spot Savings or Setup Headache?
Kubernetes finally lets you taint nodes with numbers. But after 20 years watching this circus, I'm asking: will it actually save you money on spots without breaking your cluster?
⚡ Key Takeaways
- v1.35 adds Gt/Lt toleration operators for numeric taints, fixing spot node scheduling gaps.
- Tolerations > NodeAffinity for safety, eviction, ops—nodes declare risk, pods opt-in.
- Prediction: Slashes custom scheduler needs, boosts spot adoption 30% in enterprises.
