[AWIPS #HFV-154854]: EDEX Kubernetes deployment

Hi John

Thank you for pointing this out.  We have fixed the link now. It should have 
linked to: http://unidata.github.io/awips2/edex/distributed-computing/

It is currently possible to deploy EDEX on multiple machines right now (our 
production edex actually runs on three machines, currently).  We've had troubles
with containerizing EDEX because of all the networking and traffic that needs
to happen through the containers.  Are you thinking Kubernetes would just
reduce the amount of time it takes to setup EDEX? Is that the main advantage?
Thanks for explaining.  We are interested in ways to make EDEX more accessible
and usable for our community.
