Our simple ROS 2 talker and listener setup runs well on a single Kubernetes node, now let’s distribute it out across multiple computers. This article builds upon our simple ROS 2 talker / listener setup by running it on multiple K8s nodes. At the completion of this setup expect to have a ROS2 Kubernetes cluster running MicroK8s on three different machines. Applying a single configuration file distributes the ROS 2 workload across the machines.

We’re excited to announce the public beta release of our latest Agent v2, which includes two major feature improvements for our Kubernetes® customers. First, Agent v2.2 now supports Kubernetes event logs that enable more seamless Kubernetes deployment troubleshooting. In addition, we now support running Agent v2 as a non-root user, making Agent v2 the most secure Kubernetes agent on the market.

If you’re running containers and Kubernetes on IBM Cloud, you can now enable the key security workflows of Sysdig Secure as a service within your IBM Cloud deployments. This makes it easier for you to implement security tools and policies to ensure your containers and your Kubernetes environment are protected and running as intended. The new container and Kubernetes security features are integrated into IBM Cloud Monitoring with Sysdig and offered as an additional service plan.

Microservices and Kubernetes have completely changed the way we reason about network security. Luckily, Kubernetes network security policies (KNP) are a native mechanism to address this issue at the correct level of abstraction. Implementing a network policy is challenging, as developers and ops need to work together to define proper rules. However, the best approach is to adopt a zero trust framework for network security using Kubernetes native controls.

In support of modern application development built on CI/CD, containers and open source, Google Cloud launched Artifact Registry (now generally available), a new artifact management solution. Sysdig helps DevOps teams using Artifact Registry confidently secure the build pipeline with comprehensive image scanning that identifies container vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to reduce risk.

After months of hard work with our team of 6. We're glad to announce that our deployment engine is now open-source. Now it's time and possible to contribute. Qovery engine is still under development, but more than 600 developers and dozens of successful companies use our Engine for 11 months through Qovery.

The CNCF’s KubeCon North America 2020 is the premier event for adopters and technologists to learn about and work with the Kubernetes community—and it’s coming up in just a few days. With so much to do and learn within a short period of time, it can be challenging to know where to focus your time. Now that we’re living in an age of all-virtual conferences, that challenge has only increased.
