Wondering how to monitor Kubernetes with Grafana? In this “Ask the Experts” episode, Coleman walks through the easiest setup — from Grafana Cloud’s built-in Kubernetes Monitoring plugin to open source Grafana with Mixins and Helm. One command, and your cluster data comes alive.

Josh Mesout, Civo’s Chief Innovation Officer, takes the stage to ask the question every UK leader is facing: how do we keep pace with the AI explosion while retaining full data sovereignty? Josh walks through relaxAI – a privacy‑first, turn‑key AI solution that ships as a plug‑and‑play box, runs on the latest NVIDIA B200 hardware, and keeps every byte inside the UK. He also demonstrates the dramatic cost advantage, up to 90 % cheaper than the big‑name models , and shows how a single query can spin into a research‑grade analyst report in seconds.

Are "free" cloud credits holding your business back? Join us for an online webinar as we explore the hidden risks associated with cloud credits and the impact they have on businesses. Our speakers, Simon Hansford, Chief Commercial Officer at Civo, and James Marks, Founder of Canopy, will share their knowledge and experience on this critical topic. This webinar is based on our recent whitepaper, which examines the "cloud credit trap" and its far-reaching implications for organizations.

In the October edition of the Kubernetes Monitoring Helm chart office hours, we discuss the upcoming version 3.6 release as well as the plan for upcoming features.

We’ve built a private‑cloud that feels exactly like a public‑cloud region, as Civo CTO Dinesh Majrekar puts it, it all starts with a conversation. Tell us what you need, we order the hardware, it ships, you plug it in, and the cloud is live in no time. No sprawling projects, no endless paperwork, just a really‑really simple flow that turns a handful of commodity servers into a sovereign Civo region.

We spot the tipping point: AI is reshaping every industry and data has become the new oil. From law firms to pharma labs, SaaS stacks to even a secret chicken recipe, today’s most valuable info is trapped in a handful of hyperscalers with almost no governance. Our UK‑based survey of 1,000 IT leaders shows the pressure is real. Most are ready to abandon big‑tech for true control and sovereignty. Civo’s answer is a new kind of cloud: built from the ground up, 100 % data‑sovereignty, and designed for more value, simplicity, and flexibility.

The tech industry is on the cusp of a revolution, driven by the rapid adoption of AI and Gen AI. At Civo Navigate London 2025, Josh Mesout (Chief Innovation Officer at Civo) explored the ways in which enterprises are leveraging these technologies to drive productivity and innovation. The conversation highlighted the challenges of scaling and running AI, including infrastructure bottlenecks and data access issues, but also showcased the potential for AI to transform industries and business models.

We’re back from Civo Navigate London! Our seventh in‑person conference where sovereignty meets AI. Attendees walked away with fresh workshops, bold talks on data sovereignty, and hard‑won insights on how the cloud must evolve. Real‑world AI demos, cutting‑edge AI talks and authentic collaborations proved the cloud’s future is now. Conversations that turned into collaborations, governments asking the hard questions and developers swapping playbooks. The cloud isn’t a monolithic wall; it’s a thriving community that builds, learns, and defies the status‑quo.

The tech industry's environmental impact is a growing concern, but can collaboration and innovation drive sustainability? At Civo Navigate London 2025, Regent Lee, Dinesh Majrekar, Liam McTague, and Simon Morris explored the challenges and opportunities of reducing emissions in the tech industry.

Join Kelsey Hightower and Mark Boost at Civo Navigate London as they discuss sovereignty in the context of AI and cloud computing. The conversation highlights the need for a more nuanced approach to cloud computing, one that balances the benefits of public cloud with the need for control and sovereignty. The discussion emphasizes the importance of open protocols and the role of the community in driving innovation, and notes that the adoption of AI workloads is driving a shift towards more decentralized and sovereign cloud architectures.

Join our AI panel discussion with Josh Mesout, James Faure, Abdul Hummaida, Jonas Vermeulen, and Daniel Miodovnik, as they come together to explore the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence. The conversation delves into the real-world applications of AI, its future trajectory, and the critical considerations surrounding security, privacy, and responsible AI practices.

With Longhorn v1.10 released recently, join Divya Mohan as she hosts David Ko to explore the newest updates - engineering, documentation, and community, on 14th October at 2 PM UTC.

Join us as Civo's leadership team, including Mark Boost, Deshish Majrekar, Kelsey Hightower, and Josh Mesout, come together to share their vision for a new kind of cloud that prioritizes data sovereignty, simplicity, and flexibility. This session explores the challenges of traditional cloud infrastructure and how Civo is addressing them with its cloud native platform. Civo's Flex Core private cloud solution is also showcased, highlighting its applications in various industries, including cybersecurity and advanced materials design.

In this session we will show how you can combine the power of Prometheus and SquaredUp to gain deep and comprehensive insights into your Kubernetes environments. See how you can monitor Kubernetes clusters, nodes and pods without having to write a single line of PromQL!

In this episode Itiel hosts Veeam experts Julia and Michael, to share their distinct paths into cloud-native technology. Julia discusses her transition from a background in law and marketing to becoming a CNCF ambassador and AWS container hero. Michael, a veteran who has been with Veeam for over 10 years, details his traditional CIS admin background (virtualization, storage) and the evolution of this role into platform engineering.

In this hands-on workshop, we covered how to build your own MCP server from scratch and connect it to AI tools like Cursor IDE or Claude Desktop. The first half is a live coding session you can follow along with to set up an MCP server for Kubernetes troubleshooting. In the second half, we take you behind the scenes at Komodor to show how we built our MCP Server MVP: a powerful bridge between AI assistants and Kubernetes infrastructure. This is just part of the 'magic' that helps the Klaudia agentic AI technology power Komodor's AI SRE Platform.
