Kubernetes vs Docker Swarm in 2024

Container orchestration is more important than ever. While Kubernetes is the industry standard, Docker Swarm still has a place for many teams.

For small teams or projects that don’t need complex service meshes, Docker Swarm provides a much lower barrier to entry.

We compare both based on cost, complexity, and future-proofing your infrastructure.
