When we first started our managed Kubernetes beta, we knew utilising K3s as the Kubernetes distribution of choice was the right move. Not only is it light-weight and quick to deploy, K3s has features ideally suited for the scenarios we envisioned our users would encounter. It’s important for us to make sure any service we offer is 100% compatible with industry standards, and K3s allows us to do just that but with simplicity and speed for our users.
2020 was a busy year for Civo, and we couldn’t have done it, and get where we are now, without our community of users. Between the wider community, our Civo Ambassadors, and our staff team, there is an enormous amount of knowledge and skill to be found. I’d like to present some of our top cloud-native guides for the year gone by, drawn both from guides published on our site and around the web by our community of users.
Like pretty much every company in 2020, Civo has had to deal with some unexpected world events! To wrap up the year, I thought I'd put together some of the most significant developments in our company from a CTO's perspective, and how they will affect us looking forward into the next year.
I joined Civo just over a year ago (straight out of a web development bootcamp) and had to quickly become familiar with concepts of Kubernetes and modern cloud-native software development as we prepared to launch our #KUBE100 beta. So, I, along with the rest of the team, thought about how we could help new users learn the basics of Kubernetes in a simple, practical, and fun way. This is how KubeQuest was born.
