Is platform engineering just another fancy word for DevOps? If you've ever wondered this, you're not alone! In this Rancher Live episode, Divya Mohan will host Colin Griffin, co-chair of the CNCF Platforms Working Group, to deconstruct the newest buzzword in town. Together, they will also be delving into some of the artefacts from the Working Group - namely, the Platform Engineering Maturity Model and the Platforms Whitepaper - to understand how to measure the value of the practice effectively.

Datadog Container Monitoring gives you real-time, end-to-end visibility into the health, security, and resource usage of your containerized environments. In this demo, we’ll show you how Datadog measures container health alongside security posture and resource utilization, offering end-to-end monitoring and optimization for your container ecosystem.

Reduce node counts to drive down infrastructure costs (on-prem and in the cloud). Get an overview of common issues that drive excess cost and understanding the 3 core strategies for tackling them. Done right, you can reduce node counts, which in turn impacts infrastructure cost and potentially reduces expensive software licenses such as OpenShift. In this 20-min session we cover the 3 core strategies.

Aliaksandr Valialkin, #VictoriaMetrics CTO present "Strategies for Efficient hashtag#LogManagement in Large-Scale hashtag#Kubernetes Clusters" at hashtag#FrOSCon. Large #Kubernetes clusters can generate significant volumes of logs, especially when housing thousands of running pods. This may demand substantial CPU, RAM, disk IO, and disk space for storing and querying large log volumes. In this talk, we will look into different strategies of storing those logs in #ElasticSearch, Grafana Loki and #VictoriaLogs and examine how we can save 10x or more on infrastructure costs.

Data lake is a very large scale data processing paradigm that disrupts the conventional data warehousing model. Data lakes can offer greater flexibility whilst retaining the benefits and efficiency of centralised data governance. With Canonical OpenStack private cloud platform, Kubernetes and Charmed Spark solutions, your data lake architecture can also benefit from extended flexibility and scalability whilst remaining cost effective to operate.

Kubernetes has proven to be a vital tool for developing and running ML models. It enhances experimentation, workflow management, and ensures high availability while handling the resource-intensive nature of AI workloads. With optimizations, Kubernetes can further improve resource utilization, making AI/ML projects more efficient.

In 2024, the cloud computing landscape faces significant challenges as costs and complexities rise. Our latest report, The Cost of Cloud 2024, explores these issues, focusing on the dominance of Azure, AWS, and GCP, and offers strategies for navigating this evolving landscape.

Uyuni is a fully open source configuration and infrastructure management tool for Linux that helps you easily manage and update server estates. It is also the upstream project from which SUSE Manager (SUMA) is derived. Earlier this year, the project introduced support for openEuler, the popular open-source Linux distribution platform. Join us on this Rancher Live episode with Zhenyu Zheng, community operations manager and maintainer of several special interest groups within the openEuler project, to learn more about the project & its collaboration with Uyuni.

Operating in the cloud has become the norm in today's business world. However, depending solely on public clouds can introduce several challenges such as increased costs, privacy issues, and performance limitations. Enter OpenStack, the world's leading open-source cloud platform. OpenStack empowers you to create your own cloud infrastructure, giving you control over your digital future.

In this weeks spotlight I sit down with Cycle Founder, Jake Warner to talk about trends in hiring and layoffs prevalent in the tech industry.

Ellen is a Partner at boldstart. She joined the boldstart team in January 2021, after having worked with the team as a founder at Dark. Her role allows her to do exactly what she loves – investing and supporting founders building pre-product, dev-focused, enterprise companies. Prior to boldstart and founding Dark, she worked in a variety of early stage product roles: at Lola on travel tooling, at Kickstarter on backer-facing projects, and at Microsoft on the first versions of cross-platform Office Mobile. The common thread is building tools that enable people to do creative work.
