I'm on a stack that also uses lambdas an event bridge, I think the OP means that the stresses originating from k8s and Kafka are gone when using lambdas and event bridge.
Indeed, that is exactly what I mean. There are some caveats though -- eventbridge doesn't give strict ordering or exactly-once delivery, so some work is needed to make idempotent consumers, etc. But, on aggregate, it's still much much easier than managing all the infrastructure that k8s and kafka requires.

Having run k8s and Kafka in a previous job (I left before I got the sack) this article rings completely true.
New shop: lambda and eventbridge = life is good.
lambda and eventbridge = life is good
Very interesting. I am struggling to articulate this mentally. Would you please expand on this comment?
