Use the service resource in Kubernetes to order a load balancer in different clouds. You need different tags, they function and are configured differently, and you still need to learn how it works in your cloud.

Contrast this with the contract* K8 tries to sell you, which is "describe the intent and we'll figure it out for you" and you'll realize the cloud providers bunged up this whole thing.

That's not to say K8 is perfect, but if you think for even a second that wiring up resources outside your kubernetes cluster will be lower-friction, kubernetes is falling short of it's goals.
