The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
What would you say if I would tell you that you can be as productive with the cheapest laptop as with the one you already have? Would you believe me if I would say that there is no need for you to install an IDE, compilers, CLIs, Docker, and whatever else you might have on your laptop? How about having a full development environment created whenever you need it instead of dealing with virtual machines and whatever else might be fulfilling your development needs?
Earlier this month the Kubernetes project discovered a security issue affecting multitenant clusters: If a potential attacker can already create or edit services and pods, then they may be able to intercept traffic from other pods (or nodes) in the cluster. An attacker that is able to create a ClusterIP service and set the spec.externalIPs field can intercept traffic to that IP.
Prometheus is an essential element in DevOps. It has one of the largest contributor communities in the open source world and is the favorite database for time-series metrics data. It is also part of Logz.io’s complete observability package, which integrates open source grafana, Jaeger, and ELK Stack into one platform. It’s a favorite for system and container monitoring. This tutorial will show you how Prometheus works with Docker and your local machine.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a naming system for computers, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. DNS translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for locating and identifying computer services and devices. For decades It’s been an essential component of the Internet. It’s an essential part of Kubernetes as well, and is used to determine how workloads connect to Kubernetes services as well as resources outside the cluster.
On December 9th, 2020, I had the pleasure of speaking with two great minds on the topic of simplifying storage in Kubernetes. Alex Chircop is the Founder and CEO at StorageOS (https://storageos.com), and Bruno Andrade is the Founder and CEO at Shipa (https://www.shipa.io). The full recording of this discussion is below. Here is a summary of what we discussed: Simplify Deploying and Operating Stateful Applications within Kubernetes
It’s re:invent season already, and we had exciting news to announce with Amazon this year. With all these remote sessions, what’s better than a quick lab to play with the new stuff? It’s starting to feel like Christmas already! We’re going to kill two birds with one stone (just an idiom, keep reading) and experiment with two of our latest announcements.
