In the ever-evolving DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) landscape, Kubernetes stands out as a pivotal technology, revolutionizing how we deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications. K8s offers powerful orchestration capabilities, ensuring our applications are resilient and can scale seamlessly to meet varying demands. However, as robust as Kubernetes is, managing it efficiently requires significant expertise and effort.
For years, AI in operations was plagued by noise—overwhelming alerts, false positives, and a lack of actionable insights. The tools available promised much, but often delivered little, leading to a loss of trust. However, with the groundbreaking work by platforms like OpenAI and the emergence of trustworthy AI tools like Copilot, the potential of AI in operations has never been nearer and clearer.

GitOps is a framework that combines the principles of software development and continuous integration, continuous delivery (CI/CD) to automate and manage application configurations and infrastructure using Git.
Handling resource allocation within Kubernetes clusters is of paramount importance. Proper resource allocation in Kubernetes ensures optimal performance and efficient utilization of the underlying infrastructure, safeguarding against capacity issues and application downtime. In contrast, improper resource allocation can lead to a plethora of challenges, from wasted resources to compromised application performance.
In today’s rapidly evolving technology landscape, Kubernetes has become essential for deploying and managing containerized applications. As organizations increasingly rely on Kubernetes to scale their operations, the need for robust guardrails becomes paramount. In this context, guardrails refer to the policies and mechanisms that ensure the safe and efficient operation of Kubernetes environments.
The current landscape of open-source software (OSS) in enterprises is characterized by a strategic shift towards open-source solutions for critical infrastructure and development needs. Enterprises increasingly rely on OSS to power their applications, manage data, and automate their deployment pipelines, making OSS an integral part of the software development lifecycle.
In recent months, AWS has announced significant changes to its Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) pricing structure, particularly concerning extended support for older K8s versions. This change is a crucial development for organizations that rely on AWS for their Kubernetes clusters, as it introduces potential cost increases for maintaining outdated versions.

Kubernetes has several components that produce logs and events containing information on everything that has happened in a Kubernetes cluster. Keeping track of all this data becomes extremely challenging when you run Kubernetes at a very large scale. With so many components generating logs, organizations need a centralized place to see it all. But this is only half your problem. You also need to correlate logs coming from different components to draw the right conclusions and take effective actions.

Ellen is a Partner at boldstart. She joined the boldstart team in January 2021, after having worked with the team as a founder at Dark. Her role allows her to do exactly what she loves – investing and supporting founders building pre-product, dev-focused, enterprise companies. Prior to boldstart and founding Dark, she worked in a variety of early stage product roles: at Lola on travel tooling, at Kickstarter on backer-facing projects, and at Microsoft on the first versions of cross-platform Office Mobile. The common thread is building tools that enable people to do creative work.

Komodor tracks changes across your entire K8s stack analyzes their ripple effect and provides you with the context you need to troubleshoot efficiently and independently.
Today’s microservices systems are complex, distributed and they are constantly changing. Keeping track of so many moving parts in so many places often seems nearly impossible! Komodor is the missing piece in your DevOps toolchain – offering one unified platform from which you can gain a deep understanding of all of your system events, changes and their effect.
Turning troubleshooting chaos into clarity:
- Empower on-call teams: Make the knowledge and expertise that has traditionally been held by only a few, clear and visible to Dev and SRE teams.
- Understand your Kubernetes: Gain the K8s visibility you are lacking. See your deployments on a timeline with the relevant information: what changed, what code was pushed and by whom.
- Track your system end-to-end: View data from your Git, config, infra, alerting and other tools, in one centralized and easy-to-understand display.
- Uncovering the context: Troubleshoot your microservices based on the most relevant context, connections and dependencies.
Keep building. We’ve got your back.
