Kubernetes revolutionised container orchestration, allowing faster and more reliable application deployment and management. But even though it transformed the world of DevOps, it introduced new challenges around security maintenance, networking and application lifecycle management.

Some time ago, we started research and development efforts to create components for Icinga aimed at monitoring Kubernetes environments. Over the past months, we have gained valuable insights into the platform and how we can monitor Kubernetes with Icinga efficiently.

We have officially released the first version of the NeuVector UI Extension for Rancher! This release is an exciting first step for integrating NeuVector security monitoring and enforcement into the Rancher Manager UI. The security vision for SUSE and its enterprise container management (ECM) products has always been to enable easy deployment, monitoring and management of a secure cloud native stack.

From the perspective of network administrator and operator, the fundamental requirements for network applications are the same regardless of the environment they are running in. They need to have their network communication fast, reliable and secure. To meet these requirements, we need to have relevant data about the application traffic.

OpenTelemetry is a popular open source project to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data, including metrics, logs, and traces. OTel, however, does not provide a monitoring backend — and this is exactly where the Grafana stack comes in. Here at Grafana Labs, we’re fully committed to the OpenTelemetry project and community.

In the wide ocean of tech companies, we watched a giant shark get consumed by a megalodon.

Efficient connectivity for stateful workloads such as databases across multiple Kubernetes clusters is crucial for effective multi-cluster deployments. The challenge lies in providing seamless communication between services deployed across these clusters. Calico Cluster mesh enhances Kubernetes’ native service discovery, allowing it to function across multiple Kubernetes clusters.
