That is a whole different discussion. If by application container you mean Tomcat then maybe. But if you mean Weblogic or Oc4j or WebSphere then hell no :-)

Then maybe you agree that Kubernetes brought some advantages that until recently only Java devs enjoyed to the rest of the world (PHP, Python etc)?

Yes I mean WebSphere.

Kubernetes is a kludge to solve problems that should be sorted out by the respective language communities.

Then there is the whole issue that interpreters without JIT/AOT should only be used for scripting.
