Kubernetes vs Nomad: What to Choose in 2022?
Kubernetes has become an enormously popular choice for containerized applications since its 2014 launch. Many software developers rely on the tool, which is now in v1.23.1. However, there are other choices on the market for container orchestration. One such tool is Nomad, originally launched in 2015. Generally pitched as an alternative to Kubernetes, Nomad, which most recently released v1.2, promotes itself as a simple, flexible option for software teams.

How to maximize K3s resource efficiency using Calico's eBPF data plane
Amazon’s custom-built Graviton processor allows users to create ARM instances in the AWS public cloud, and Rancher K3s is an excellent way to run Kubernetes in these instances. By allowing a lightweight implementation of Kubernetes optimized for ARM with a single binary, K3s simplifies the cluster initialization process down to executing a simple command.
Kubernetes Health Check Using Probes
Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration platform that significantly simplifies an application's creation and management. Distributed systems like Kubernetes can be hard to manage, as they involve many moving parts and all of them must work for the system to function. Even if a small part breaks, it needs to be detected, routed and fixed. These actions also need to be automated. Kubernetes allows us to do that with the help of readiness and liveness probes.
Rancher Desktop: Now You Can Disable Kubernetes
With the 1.1.0 release of Rancher Desktop, there are some changes that give you more control over your environment.
Shipa Cloud Operations and Practices
Shipa Cloud is how we run the Shipa control plane on behalf of users in order to give them the fastest path possible to implementing Application as Code within their clusters. You can try out Shipa Cloud for free today by going to shipa.io. Besides being the fastest way possible to get started with Shipa, it also takes away the responsibility of upgrades, maintenance, and uptime of the control plane for our users, but that responsibility doesn’t just disappear.
GitOps stack with Rancher Fleet and Shipa
Learn how to quickly build a complete GitOps stack using Fleet and Shipa Rancher Fleet is a recent project from Rancher. Fleet is easy to implement, and by connecting it to Shipa, you have a complete Application Platform that uses GitOps as the delivery method.
One Minute to Deployed on Kubernetes with Shipa
In this Shipa Shorts video, we deploy to Kubernetes in under a minute. All we had to produce is an image and Shipa takes care of the rest. No need to wire Networking Policies, Service Meshes, etc. With Shipa, you can deploy to Kubernetes without having to understand Kubernetes internals. Outside the UI, no matter your flavor of CI/CD, Shipa supports that.
Enabling simple, cost-effective Kubernetes on IBM Z with MicroK8s
Containerisation has transformed the enterprise IT landscape, driving faster, more secure, and more predictable software delivery than ever before. Thanks to technologies like Docker, building containerised applications is easy, and many businesses are working with hundreds or even thousands of containers. To effectively deploy and manage all of these microservices, a container orchestration tool is essential, and Kubernetes is the leading solution.
