Just thinking about this lately: when jumping straight from traditional deployment to cloud-native, what are the actual stepping stones in between? Concepts like containerization, orchestration, service mesh—always make my head spin. Any pros out there willing to share real-world experience? What pitfalls did you hit going from 0 to 1? Or maybe point me to a solid learning path? Let’s figure this out together—don’t make me wander through official docs alone anymore 😅
What’s the best way to go down the cloud-native path?

Containerization is just the first step—just Dockerize your traditional apps without overcomplicating it. Then move on to Kubernetes orchestration, starting with Minikube. I hit several walls before finally getting Ingress to work. Don’t rush into service mesh yet; Istio is too complex, while Linkerd is lighter and easier to pick up.
