Docker is one of the most popular tools for containerization, and several tools have been developed by the open-source community to monitor what happens inside of Docker containers. This guide focuses on one tool specifically: cAdvisor.

To keep pace with the accelerating digital landscape, today’s organizations are adopting containers and Kubernetes to enable agility and increased time-to-value. Given Kubernetes widespread adoption, it’s no surprise there are so many new and emerging trends and best practices.

Qovery provides fast implementation and maintenance of your cloud infrastructure while taking care of end-to-end DevOps tasks. It even manages your Kubernetes clusters for you. It gives developers autonomy because it is effortless and does not need a vast DevOps workforce. With a few clicks, a developer can create a replica of the production environment and deploy their code easily, but where should you start, and with what?

In technology, nothing is static. We need to be open to experimenting with new platforms and avoid getting locked into any one single entity or technological solution. With all the recent events, many people are looking for alternatives where they can post microblogging content like they did on Twitter. Mastodon has recently become significantly more popular due to its decentralised nature and the power of enabling different communities to define themselves.

Securing a Kubernetes cluster is far from a simple task. How do you know if you have correctly configured volumeMounts in your in-cluster containers? And what about all those workload resources, such as Deployments, Jobs, Pods, etc? Luckily, you can use Kubewarden, an efficient Kubernetes policy engine that runs policies compiled to Wasm. This means you can run powerful specifically-written policies, our reuse existing Rego policies for example.

As you might be aware, each team has its own unique workflow based on the project type, size of the company, team preferences, and a number of other factors. The larger the team, the more difficult it is to keep things under control: disputes become more regular, delivery deadlines may postpone, priorities always change - the list may go on and on. Adapting Git is the first step in resolving these challenges, as it can be used in almost any workflow.

Software development and the DevOps lifecycle now requires continuous integration and delivery, also referred to as CI/CD. To help users automate the steps between a developer checking in code and releasing that code into production, open source CI/CD solutions are created.

Kubernetes (K8s) packs a ton of benefits as a container orchestration platform. For instance, K8s is big on automation. This includes automating workload discovery, self-healing, and scaling containerized applications. Yet, Kubernetes isn't always production-ready after a few tweaks. This guide shares crucial Kubernetes best practices you'll want to start using immediately to improve your K8s security, performance, and costs. Let’s get to it!
