What is autoscaling? How to scale applications and Kubernetes clusters? What is the difference between vertical and horizontal scaling? Should we combine Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA), Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA), and Cluster Autoscaler (CA) in Kubernetes?
Continue readingVMWare Tanzu Community Edition is a Kubernetes platform that competes with Rancher and OpenShift. Is it any good? Should you use it?
Continue readingWouldn’t it be great if we would not need to define infrastructure but let applications themselves figure out what to do, where to run, and how to do all that? Klotho enables us to write Cloud-native microservices and applications and auto-magically get infrastructure and the code that ties it all together.
Continue readingWhat are mutable and immutable objects and resources? Does immutability apply to bare metal, virtual machines (VMs), applications, Cloud, containers, infrastructure, Kubernetes, etc.? What does mutability and immutability mean? Mutable vs. immutable explained.
Continue readingTalos is Linux designed for Kubernetes. It’s secure, immutable, and minimal.
Huge thanks to Alfadil Tabar for making this video happen.
Continue readingCast AI allows us to cut costs by autoscaling and to rightsize our Kubernetes clusters.
Continue readingCan we get rid of the part of CI/CD pipelines that are modifying GitOps manifests repositories with new releases? Can we use Argo CD Image Updater to streamline part of our processes?
Continue readingKoncrete is cloud-hosted GitOps and continuous delivery (CD) service for Kubernetes built on top of Argo CD. It is effectively, ArgoCD-as-a-Service or GitOps-as-a-Service type of solution.
Continue readingDevtron is an open-source software delivery workflow for Kubernetes. It combines CI, CD, and GitOps principles and processes through Argo CD, Argo Workflows, Argo Rollouts, Clair, and quite a few other tools.
Continue readingApplication lifecycle typically consists of three parts. First, we develop locally, we deploy to temporary environments, usually due to creating pull requests, and we proceed towards a permanent environment, all the way until production. Can we streamline and simplify the whole application lifecycle process by combining Kubernetes, vCluster, DevSpace, Argo CD, k3d, and GitHub Actions? Even if you prefer a different combination, the principles behind this process can be easily applied to a myriad of other tools.
