New comment by freehunter in "You might not need Kubernetes"

Maybe someone here can help me figure out what I need, since the world of containers is growing faster than I can understand.

I have one code base that I run on multiple servers/containers independently of each other. Think Wordpress style. I used to run it on Heroku but I switched to Dokku because it's substantially cheaper and I don't mind taking care of the infrastructure. I like Dokku but I do worry about being tied to just one server and not being able to horizontally scale or easily load balance between multiple servers/regions. Ideally what I'd like is Dokku with horizontal scaling built in. I've seen Deis and Flynn but they seem less active/mature even than Dokku, which is saying something.

Is Kubernetes the right answer here or should I stick with Dokku and forget about horizontal scaling?
