Metrics are important for a microservices application running on Kubernetes because they provide visibility into the health and performance of the application. This visibility can be used to troubleshoot problems, optimize the application, and ensure that it is meeting its SLAs. Some of the challenges that metrics solve for microservices applications running on Kubernetes include: Calico is the most adopted technology for Kubernetes networking and security.

If you’re a systems engineer, SRE, or just someone with a love for tech buzzwords, you’ve likely heard about “data lakes”. Before we dive deep into this concept, let’s debunk the illusion: there aren’t any floaties or actual lakes involved! Instead, imagine a vast reservoir where you store loads and loads of raw data in its natural format. Now, pair this with the idea of observability and telemetry pipelines, and we have ourselves an engaging topic.

Over the last decade, I’ve rarely met a data professional whose organization wasn’t experiencing data growth and making more demands of their data. We build and deploy new applications faster than we retire old ones, and new data is accumulating dramatically faster on our existing systems than our ability to decide to delete older information. Additionally, the ever-growing number of users and devices interacting with that data increases the strain on the infrastructure underpinning it.

With the recent advancements in technology and online digital services have transformed the way the banks work. Decades ago, banks used to handle everything on paper and the services opted for were very limited. Services were not unified, and account holders were forced to visit the bank even for small number of deposits or withdrawals or just to raise concerns. Today, technology has penetrated almost every industry and the banking sector is no exception to this undeniable reality.
