It’s an exciting day at Sysdig as we announce our channel-first approach to doing business. What does this mean exactly? Going forward, we will be conducting sales for all customers outside of the Global 500 through a channel partner. For more than three decades, customers have leveraged channel partners as trusted advisors for vendor-agnostic IT consultation and expertise. Our channel-first approach moves Sysdig in line with how customers buy.

As you already know, the “What’s new in Sysdig” blog team is involving more and more people, and this month is up to me, Giulio Puri. I’m based in Milan, Italy, and I’ve been part of the Sysdig EMEA team since May, 2021 as a Sales Engineer. I’m passionate about technology, innovation and cybersecurity, and in my free time, I love to cook, experiment with recipes and – not always successfully – surprise my friends with new dishes.

Today, I’m excited to announce that Gerald Combs, the original creator and lead maintainer of Wireshark, has joined Sysdig. In addition, Sysdig is becoming the primary sponsor of Wireshark.

I am excited to announce today that we have raised an additional $350M at a valuation of $2.5B, more than doubling our valuation and bringing our cumulative funding since inception to ~$750M. This funding reflects investor conviction in our ability to be the dominant cloud and container security platform, and brings us closer to our vision of helping every organization to confidently run modern, cloud-native applications.

Kubernetes 1.23 is about to be released, and it comes packed with novelties! Where do we begin? This release brings 45 enhancements, on par with the 56 in Kubernetes 1.22 and the 50 in Kubernetes 1.21. Of those 45 enhancements, 11 are graduating to Stable, a whopping 15 are existing features that keep improving, and 19 are completely new. The new features included in this version are generally small, but really welcomed. Like the kubectl events command, support for OpenAPI v3, or gRPC probes.
