The optimization imperative: Sustainably scale K8s in your IDP

It’s considered common practice for platform engineering teams to build their IDP to be a self-service product for developers. This means, among other things, building a dedicated team around it for upkeep and support, creating a roadmap for development, and coming up with metrics they can use to determine its success.

How to Filter Docker Logs with Grep

Managing logs in Docker can quickly become overwhelming, especially when dealing with multiple containers. If you’ve ever tried to sift through a sea of log entries looking for a specific error or debugging message, you know the struggle. Fortunately, you can pipe docker logs output through grep to filter logs efficiently. This guide breaks down how to use docker logs grep it effectively, including practical examples to help you debug and monitor your containerized applications like a pro.

Monitoring Kubernetes Resource Usage with kubectl top

Efficient resource utilization is key to running Kubernetes workloads smoothly. Whether you're troubleshooting performance issues, optimizing resource requests and limits, or keeping an eye on cluster health, the kubectl top command is an essential tool. It provides real-time CPU and memory usage metrics for nodes and pods, helping you make informed decisions about scaling and resource allocation.

What is AI Middleware, and Why You Need It to Safely Deliver AI Applications

When it comes to infusing artificial intelligence (AI) into enterprise applications, developers, platform engineers and data scientists are facing a tremendous opportunity. However, in Tanzu, we are also hearing about their struggles to get to production, not to mention achieving positive return on investment (ROI).

AWS Service Comparison: ECS Vs. EC2 Vs. S3 Vs. Lambda

Amazon Web Services (AWS) offers over 200 fully-featured services. AWS Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Elastic Container Service (ECS), Amazon Lambda, and the AWS Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) are some of the most critical services you should become familiar with. We’ve previously covered Amazon ECS vs. EKS vs. Fargate for managing and deploying containers. This guide will explain how Amazon EC2, Lambda, ECS, and S3 compare and when you’ll want to use each.

How To Monitor Kubernetes with Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring

Kubernetes is the standard for orchestrating containerized microservices — but it can present some monitoring challenges. Luckily, we’ve already covered why monitoring Kubernetes is a must-do, the basics of how to do it, and the options you have for collecting monitoring data from a K8s environment.

Ensuring Optimal Kubernetes Cluster Health with Calico Observability

Have you ever wondered how to navigate the complexities of managing Kubernetes clusters effectively? Observability is the key, and Elasticsearch plays a pivotal role in storing and analyzing the critical data that keeps your systems running smoothly.

The AI Model Showdown - LLaMA 3.3-70B vs. Claude 3.5 Sonnet v2 vs. DeepSeek-R1/V3

Following all the hype and bluster with DeepSeek’s arrival in the AI landscape––and its ability to crash the poster child of AI’s share value overnight (Nvidia), we wanted to conduct a rigorous evaluation at Komodor. We tested DeepSeek’s models head-to-head against industry leaders in solving real-world Kubernetes challenges.

Coralogix Releases eBPF Observability for K8s Workloads

There are several big barriers to an effective tracing strategy. Modern applications require complex code instrumentation, and legacy applications might not be so easy to alter, and that’s assuming every engineering team can be engaged to make the necessary changes. eBPF & OpenTelemetry flip this entire problem on its head, and Coralogix is one of the first major observability platforms to leverage this exciting functionality, to provide an unobtrusive, low risk overview of your system.

Kubernetes 101

When you get behind the wheel of your car, one of the first things you see is the dashboard. Your dashboard provides various information about all the different technologies that make the car run smoothly, like helping you control your speed, providing insight into your fuel levels, and offering suggestions for regular maintenance, like oil changes. For developers, Kubernetes acts as that one-glance dashboard to provide insights about container performance, maintenance needs, and storage requirements.
