Kubernetes Application-Level API

The Kubernetes API is the front end of the Kubernetes control plane and is how users can interact with their clusters. In essence, it’s the interface used to manage, create, and configure the cluster and the state of objects. Using a standard API, Kubernetes allowed teams to focus on constructs and consume infrastructure across different providers.

Infrastructure as Code, part 1: create a Kubernetes cluster with Terraform

This series shows you how to get started with infrastructure as code (IaC). The goal is to help developers build a strong understanding of IaC through tutorials and code examples. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is an integral part of modern continuous integration pipelines. It is the process of managing and provisioning cloud and IT resources using machine readable definition files.

Overview: See the VMware Tanzu Application Platform DevSecOps Experience

This video demonstrates how you can use the VMware Tanzu Application Platform to help accelerate your DevSecOps culture. In it, we show how the Tanzu Application Platform can use an outer loop supply chain to automatically take your application from source code to URL using a supply chain that includes continuous integration testing, source code and image scanning, container build, and, finally, deployment.

What is Kubernetes Lens?

As a DevOps Engineer, one day you’re performing magic in the terminal, settling clusters, and feeling like a god. On some other days, you feel like a total fraud and scam. Errors and bugs appear from everywhere, you don’t know where to start, and you don’t know where to look. Sadly, days like this come far too often. To be more specific, what often causes these bad days is none other than Kubernetes itself.
