Reaping the Benefits of Multi-Cluster Orchestration in Kubernetes

The rise of containerization has precipitated an unprecedented shift in the software development landscape, with Kubernetes emerging as the de facto standard for managing large-scale containerized applications. One of the more nuanced aspects of Kubernetes that is gaining attention is multi-cluster orchestration. This approach to cluster management offers several compelling advantages that reshape how businesses operate and innovate in a cloud-native context.

Security in the cloud: Whose responsibility is it?

While the cloud is recognized as more secure than on-premises servers and infrastructures, it does come with the often talked about shared responsibility model. Cloud providers are responsible for security ‘of’ the cloud, while their clients are responsible for security ‘in’ the cloud. It’s ‘differently secure’, rather than the traditionally secure organizations have been used to when working with on-premises environments.

Monitor multiple Azure subscriptions in a single dashboard

Multiple Azure subscriptions are typically managed by a Tenant in an enterprise. Each subscription is tailored to a specific product, project, module, or environment. This article addresses the utilization of Serverless360 for the monitoring and managing these diverse Azure subscriptions.

Azure Event Grid dead letter monitoring

Microsoft Azure provides a completely managed event routing service called Azure Event Grid. It allows you to respond to events received from various Azure services and external applications and forward them to different Azure services and endpoints. Azure Event Grid provides a unified way to manage events in Azure with event-driven programming. With Event Grids, you can create event-driven applications in a serverless environment, cutting down costs and performance lags.

The beauty of this approach is that you no longer need to grapple with server deployment and maintenance; the cloud infrastructure automatically furnishes the essential resources to support your applications.

Auto-Instrumenting OpenTelemetry for Kafka

Apache Kafka, born at LinkedIn in 2010, has revolutionized real-time data streaming and has become a staple in many enterprise architectures. As it facilitates seamless processing of vast data volumes in distributed ecosystems, the importance of visibility into its operations has risen substantially. In this blog, we’re setting our sights on the step-by-step deployment of a containerized Kafka cluster, accompanied by a Python application to validate its functionality. The cherry on top?

The Limitations Of Combining CloudHealth And Kubecost

Ever since its release in September 2014, Kubernetes has been equally powerful and meme-able in the engineering world. For all the magic of its container orchestration and compute resource management, it’s also mysterious and, to many, confounding — especially when it comes time to pay for it. As we’ve written before, migrating to Kubernetes often means losing cost visibility.
