Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration system that enables applications to run on a cluster of hosts. It’s a critical part of cloud native architecture because it can work on public or private clouds and on-premises environments. With an orchestration layer on top of traditional infrastructure, Kubernetes allows the automated deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
We are happy to announce the first minor release of Kubewarden v1.0: v1.1.1 is now available! For those of you new to Kubewarden, it is a policy manager for Kubernetes.
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) is a data center architecture that uses software to provide a scalable, efficient, cost-effective way to deploy and manage resources. HCI virtualizes and combines storage, computing, and networking into a single system that can be easily scaled up or down as required.
With the latest releases of Kubewarden v1.1.0 and the verify-image-signatures policy, it’s now possible to use GithubActions or KeylessPrefix for verifying images. Read our previous blog post if you want to learn more about how to verify container images with Sigstore using Kubewarden.
As announced in past blog posts, Kubewarden has 100% coverage of the deprecated, and soon to be removed, Kubernetes PSPs. If everything goes as expected the PSPs will be removed in Kubernetes v1.25 due for release on 23rd August 2022. The Kubewarden team has written a script that leverages the migration tool written by AppVia, to migrate PSP automatically. The tool is capable of reading PSPs YAML and can generate the equivalent policies in many different policy engines.
Modern application deployments rely heavily on containerization for its scalability, availability and ease of maintenance. Legacy applications implemented before the containerization era often use monolithic, hardware-centric architectures that are difficult to scale and manage. These legacy applications may have multiple services bundled into the same deployment unit without a logical grouping.
Kubewarden is a policy engine for Kubernetes that is part of the CNCF Sandbox. Its mission is to simplify the adoption of policy-as-code. Never heard of Kubewarden? Do you want to know what makes Kubewarden stand out among similar solutions? This is a high-level overview of Kubewarden’s unique points: Today, a year and a half since its conception, we’re thrilled to announce the release of Kubewarden v1.0.0!
Epinio is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that allows developers to go from the application source to a URL in one step. Try Epinio today or try it tomorrow — but make sure you try it. We just released our first stable version (Epinio v1.0.0) and we think you are going to love it. Let me tell you why.
When I joined SUSE I heard about our Kubernetes distributions: Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE), RKE2 and K3s. However, the differences between RKE and RKE2 were not clear to me. I decided to spend time with them and blog about the differences.
In addition to the usual updates to supporting utilities, Rancher Desktop 1.4 adds a couple of new useful features we think you’ll like.
