🌱 Why choose Coop Cloud for your collective?
A creature from Datakollektivet.no joined us, wondering if they should move from ansible to coop cloud. Here's some of our reasons for joining:
- Coop Cloud helps reduce skill silos, allowing more people in your org to share infrastructure responsibilities.
- Deploying new services is more cost-effective, because many interactions are preconfigured: e.g. centralized configuration, SSO, health checks, and upgrades.
- When you do have to perform work setting up a service, others in the community will benefit and may contribute to your efforts.
- Creating a new recipe involves following guidelines which ensure stable and robust deployments.
- Offboarding is easy. You can stop using abra at any time and manage your deployment using another tool.
- Maybe most importantly, the community around coop cloud is valuable to its members, as a place to get together with other tech cooperatives and collectives.

@coopcloud a question for you: do you not find that docker is prone to network corruption if the host you're on doesn't always have a stable connection? I ran a docker swarm of similar services on my home network connection and the thing got fouled every time the connection dropped. I switched to kubernetes and haven't had the same issues, I find it's much more stable and fault tolerant
