The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Usually, when you hear us going on about labels here at Tigera, we are mentioning them as targets for selectors for network policies. As a review, you might have a policy that says, “things labeled customerDB=server should allow traffic on 6443 from things labeled customerDB=client” In this example, the labels identify a resource being produced or consumed.
Today we are very excited to announce our latest release — Sysdig Secure 2.3! In this version of Sysdig Secure, we have invested heavily in hardening the compliance posture of Kubernetes, Docker configurations, and container images. We have released a set of features that provide compliance focused image scanning, guided remediation, compliance dashboards, and more.
We recently had the opportunity to share the lessons we have learned about container security from deploying Kubernetes and OpenShift in the field. If you don’t have time to watch the full recording of our conversation, here are a few highlights.
More than 20,000 environments have chosen Rancher as the solution to make the Kubernetes adventure painless in as many ways as possible. More than 200 businesses across finance, health care, military, government, retail, manufacturing, and entertainment verticals have recognized that Rancher simply works better than other solutions.
On this episode of Exception Perceptions, Bret Fisher, Docker Captain and creator of the popular Docker Mastery series on Udemy, helps us master Docker Compose. Watch the episode, and read more of Bret’s suggested best practices. Then go and get all of his Docker resources.
At Sysdig we’ve recently undergone a pretty interesting shift in our core instrumentation technology, adapting our agent to take advantage of eBPF – a core part of the Linux kernel. Sysdig now supports eBPF as an alternative to our Sysdig kernel module-based architecture. Today we are excited to share more details about our integration and the inner workings of eBPF. To celebrate this exciting technology we’re publishing a series of articles entirely dedicated to eBPF.
Today we’ve announced that we’ve officially added eBPF instrumentation to extend container observability with Sysdig monitoring, security and forensics solutions. eBPF – extended Berkeley Packet Filter – is a Linux-native in-kernel virtual machine that enables secure, low-overhead tracing for application performance and event observability and analysis.
Inherently, Kubernetes clusters are multi-user. As a result, organizations want to ensure that cross-communication is protected via role-based access control, logical isolation and network policies. A container orchestration system such as Kubernetes brings information technology operations and developers (DevOps) closer together, making it easier for teams to collaborate effectively and efficiently with each other.
