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.

As almost 90% of organizations are executing on a multi-cloud strategy for migrating their data and analytics workloads to the cloud, the term “modern data stack” continues to gain more traction. A modern data stack is a suite of technologies and apps built specifically to funnel data into an organization, transform it into actionable data, build a plan for acting on that data, and then implement that plan.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve recently added Varnish monitoring support for Google Cloud Platform. You can check it out here!

The community has spoken and the demand was clear: “BRING BACK THE INTERACTIVE SHELL USED IN 1.X” So it’s back… It works with InfluxDB V2… and has some improvements. The interactive shell allowed users to write data and interactively query data using InfluxQL. For newer users, InfluxQL is the SQL-like query engine that was native to the first major version of InfluxDB.

As more businesses generate and process data at the edge, the need to share data from edge nodes to a centralized cloud location increases. Replicating data from the edge to the cloud ensures consistency across an entire application and creates an uninterrupted historical record that preserves the critical context of time. Edge Data Replication (EDR) is a feature available in InfluxDB designed to address this challenge.

What’s your web browser of choice? Ask an office full of workers that question and you’ll get a few answers, sure, but one has emerged as a clear favorite: Google Chrome. Holding a collective 60% of the market share in 2021, Chrome has separated itself as the preferred web browser for the general public and modern employees. Here’s the problem: a majority of businesses still set other browsers (predominantly Safari or Firefox) as the default browsers for their employee devices.

How do you go from A to Z with observability and OpenTelemetry? This post answers a question we hear often: “How do I get started on instrumentation with OpenTelemetry, while also following best practices for the long-term?” This article is all about taking you from A to Z on instrumentation. This will help you: We will use a simple greeting service application written in Node.js to understand the journey. You can find the pre-instrumented state here.

Despite the best efforts of individuals to protect their own data, they cannot always account for the cybersecurity shortcomings of larger organizations such as their employers, financial institutions, and healthcare providers entrusted with their personal information. Hotels should also be added to this list of vulnerable entities, as was made painfully apparent in the most recent Marriott data breach.

If you have been following the financial news lately, you have surely become all too familiar with the challenging economic conditions that have emerged in 2022. As rising inflationary concerns put pressure on the bottom line, decision makers within businesses of all sizes are suddenly having to re-evaluate strategies, forecasts, and expenses. This pivot to a more conservative outlook is not unlike the approach adopted by businesses at the onset of COVID-19.

As a gold sponsor for DevOps Institute’s fourth annual Upskilling IT report, we compiled some key takeaways. However, there is so much more to get from this report – so download and read the full report today. In this technology-driven world, skills have a very limited shelf life. The knowledge, tools and resources we rely on in the moment rarely stay relevant or useful forever – especially with rapidly changing demands.
