With 34% of cloud developers facing difficulties when calculating how much their cloud provider is going to charge them each month, it is essential to prioritize cloud cost management. This concept surrounds the process of monitoring, controlling, and optimizing an organization’s cloud service spend. By having the correct cloud cost management strategies in place, organizations are able to eliminate unnecessary expenses through optimizing resource allocation and cost-saving strategies.
I’m excited to announce the general availability of the SUSE NeuVector container security platform version 5.1. With the 5.1 release, customers will benefit from more efficient and powerful vulnerability scanning and admission controls across multiple clusters through centralized enterprise scanning, auto-scaling scanners and support for the new Kubernetes (1.25+) pod security admission (PSA) standard. The release also supports the Cilium network plug-in.
As companies start their Kubernetes and cloud-native journey, cloud infrastructures and services grow at a rapid pace. This happens all too often as organizations shift left without thorough controls, which can lead to overallocating and overspending on their Kubernetes environments. Organizations running workloads in the cloud can put budgets at risk when they lack information about key facts.

With the release of InfluxDB’s new storage engine for InfluxDB Cloud, InfluxDB Cloud now supports SQL. This is because the updated InfluxDB uses the Apache Arrow DataFusion project as a key building block for its query execution engine. DataFusion’s sophisticated query optimizations support near unlimited cardinality data in InfluxDB Cloud.
The structured nature of Kubernetes enables a repeatable and scalable means of deploying and managing services and applications. This has led to widespread adoption across market verticals for both on-premises and cloud deployment models. The autonomous nature of Kubernetes operation, however, demands comprehensive, fully-converged observability and security. This is uniquely possible today using the Elastic platform.
