Kubernetes, one of the most popular container management systems, automates the work necessary for deploying and scaling a containerized application by managing a large number of interdependent microservices. Additionally, it allows for the migration and deployment of containerized applications across different platforms in a multi-cloud environment.

5G is the fifth generation of wireless technology which is transforming the way we connect and communicate. With data transfer speeds up to 100 times faster than 4G, 5G technology enables faster download and upload times, lower latency and a higher number of connected devices. Additionally, 5G networks will support a wider range of frequencies, including high and low bands, which will ensure wider coverage and greater reliability.

With the current financial climate, cost reduction is top of mind for everyone. IT is one of the biggest cost centers in organizations, and understanding what drives those costs is critical. Many simply don’t understand the cost of their Kubernetes workloads, or even have observability into basic units of cost. This is where FinOps comes into play, and organizations are beginning to implement those best practice standards to understand their cost.

Prometheus is one the the most acclaimed solutions for Kubernetes monitoring. There are multiple add-ons and exporters that facilitate the task of pulling Kubernetes metrics. Sysdig Monitor is a cloud-native observability platform that helps businesses with the whole observability lifecycle. It provides simplicity at all times, allowing companies to rapidly pull their Kubernetes and Prometheus metrics without headaches.

What’s New in Sysdig is back again with the February 2023 edition! I am Michael Rudloff, an Enterprise Sales Engineer based in the United Kingdom, and I am very excited to update you with the latest feature releases from Sysdig. This month, Sysdig Secure brings a couple of new features. We have added reports to Risk Spotlight – Risk Spotlight can show you which packages with vulnerabilities are currently in use in a running container across your whole Kubernetes environment.

Kubernetes Secrets are a built-in resource type that's used to store sensitive data. This blog teaches you how to work with Secrets in Kubernetes. Kubernetes can do many things, but we usually refer to it as a “container orchestrator.” Orchestrating containers means starting and restarting them when needed, ensuring their configuration matches the declared state, and autoscaling them. But Kubernetes can do much more than that.
