One of Kubernetes' killer features is its ability to seamlessly update applications no matter how large your deployment is. Did a developer make a code change, and now you need to update a thousand running containers? Just run kubectl apply -f manifest.yaml and watch as Kubernetes replaces each outdated pod with the new version.

At Qovery, we're using Rust for 10+ projects. If you are familiar with Rust, you know how painful it is to release a binary for multiple architectures. Even if the toolchain natively supports it.

Control over operational costs is pivotal in Kubernetes' deployment and management. Although Kubernetes brings power and control over your deployments, it also necessitates thorough understanding and management of costs. OpenCost, specifically designed for Kubernetes cost monitoring, combined with VictoriaMetrics, an efficient time series database, offers a comprehensive solution for this challenge.

In 2022, Ofcom, a UK regulator, began its market study into the cloud industry to investigate the dominance that hyperscalers, especially AWS and Microsoft, hold over the industry and the limits this creates for customers. This investigation follows concerns surrounding customers feeling “locked in” to a single provider, potentially leading to inflated prices in the market¹.

Most IT firms build their empire on Kubernetes, for its amazing flexibility and super scalability. RedHat OpenShift Container Platform (formerly OpenShift Enterprise) is a hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes, which initially only operated on-premise, and has been open to service for more than nine years.

Last year we launched the Codefresh delivery platform powered by Argo. After the initial launch we started collecting feedback from all companies that tried it (as well as existing customers) and cataloged all feature requests and implementation ideas. The main goal is always to iterate quickly and address the most common issues in the most efficient way possible.

Welcome to the Calico monthly roundup: September edition! From open source news to live events, we have exciting updates to share—let’s get into it!

LogicMonitor’s LM Container is an excellent choice for users who wish to effectively monitor Kubernetes environments running mission-critical business applications. We have now introduced a new cost optimization feature called dynamic property filtering, which offers added flexibility and customization to users. In this blog post, we will guide you through this exciting new feature with a step-by-step example of selectively monitoring a persistent volume based on its state.
