Java on containers: a guide to efficient deployment

Java remains one of the most widely used programming languages today, especially in enterprise backend systems—and for many good reasons. With each new release, Java’s robust runtime offers additional improvements in performance, security, scalability, and developer productivity. The portability of its code has proven increasingly relevant and useful as the industry embraces ARM64, making Java one of the go-to languages for modern workloads.

Challenges in Kubernetes monitoring and how to overcome them

Kubernetes has revolutionized how organizations deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications, offering unprecedented efficiency and flexibility. However, the very characteristics that make Kubernetes so powerful—its dynamic, distributed, and ephemeral nature—also create significant challenges for monitoring. Without robust monitoring capabilities, organizations struggle to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, optimize resource utilization, and maintain security.

AIOps for Kubernetes (or KAIOps?)

With the growing complexity of cloud-native applications, DevOps teams often face challenges when setting up and maintaining Kubernetes observability. AIOps (artificial intelligence for IT operations) makes the process more manageable using AI and machine learning for monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance optimization. In this article, you’ll learn about the common challenges in Kubernetes observability and how AIOps can provide proactive and effective solutions.
