Getting up and running with Calico on your Rancher Kubernetes Cluster
Rancher is a great way to deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters across a broad range of environments, abstracting away many of the differences between the environments, and using Canal for run-anywhere networking. But what if you want to up your networking game to squeeze the most out of your clusters? In this training session you’ll learn about the various networking options available to you in Rancher, and considerations to take into account in order to select the best option for your environment.
Getting started with Shipa
Getting started with Shipa is easy and only take a few minutes to have your first application up and running
A 5 Minute Guide for Experimenting with Ambassador and Jaeger in a Kubernetes Sandbox
Implementing distributed tracing is fast becoming a fundamental expectation when building modern (distributed) systems. However, this is yet another thing for developers to learn, and configuring distributed tracing on Kubernetes is hard, right? Actually, no. Getting started with Jaeger on Kubernetes has never been easier.

How to create a Kubernetes cluster on Civo
Saiyam Pathak walks you through how to easily launch a Kubernetes cluster on Civo, either through the dashboard or using the Civo CLI. Kubernetes clusters in under 2 mins!
Scaling Fleet and Kubernetes to a Million Clusters
We created the Fleet Project to provide centralized GitOps-style management of a large number of Kubernetes clusters. A key design goal of Fleet is to be able to manage 1 million geographically distributed clusters. When we architected Fleet, we wanted to use a standard Kubernetes controller architecture. This meant in order to scale, we needed to prove we could scale Kubernetes much farther than we ever had.
How to monitor Kubernetes control plane
The control plane is the brain and heart of Kubernetes. All of its components are key to the proper working and efficiency of the cluster. Monitor Kubernetes control plane is just as important as monitoring the status of the nodes or the applications running inside. It may be even more important, because an issue with the control plane will affect all of the applications and cause potential outages.
Maximize Monitoring in Rancher 2.5 with Prometheus
We dedicate a lot of space in our blog to the topic of monitoring. That’s because when you’re managing Kubernetes clusters, things can change quickly. It’s important that you have tools to monitor the health and resource metrics of your clusters. In Rancher 2.5, we introduced a new version of our monitoring based on the Prometheus Operator, which provides Kubernetes-native deployment and management of Prometheus and related monitoring components.
Multi-Cluster, Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Cloud Networking, Observability and Security Management
Managing networking, observability and security in multiple Kubernetes clusters can quickly become a major challenge. Lack of a centralized, unified multi-cluster approach results in dozens of clusters that are deployed and managed independently throughout an organization, with very little uniformity in the way they are secured. This adds complexity for DevOps teams, who must adapt to different cluster environments.
