Ghosts of Servers Past: The Bare-Metal Comeback Story

Bare-metal. Just reading that word might trigger a physical reaction for some of us. Dusty closets, old server rooms, and loud rigs that never seemed to work quite right. Remember waiting days for IT to provision a server, only to realize your ticket got lost in the shuffle? Or the classic "well, it worked on my machine" excuse right before a production push? Ah, the good old days.

[Webinar] Conquering the Complexity of Self-Hosted Apps with Agentic AI SRE

Most enterprise SaaS products, like Komodor’s Autonomous AI SRE Platform, require installing a remote agent on the customer’s infrastructure, which varies significantly from one organization to another, in terms of architecture, configurations, permissions, processes, and more. This “unmanaged” model creates major blind spots, making daily operations, observability, debugging, and incident response challenging. When failures occur, limited visibility and bespoke systems make root-cause analysis slow, incomplete, or impossible.

Catch Every Moment in Kubernetes: Splunk's Observability Advantage

Discover why real-time, unsampled observability is critical for Kubernetes environments with Stephane Estevez from Splunk at KubeCon Europe 2026. Learn how Splunk’s unique approach helps you catch every important moment—even when containers vanish in milliseconds. Watch now for expert insights on cloud-native monitoring, observability, and Kubernetes best practices!

The story behind Konstruct: Lessons learned scaling GitOps

In 2024, Civo acquired Konstruct (formerly Kubefirst) to reinforce our commitment to simplifying cloud computing complexities. When this acquisition was made, it began a whole new chapter for the team behind Konstruct. Over the years, we assembled our team by working with a community of thousands of engineers in what can be a very complex cloud native environment. We were fortunate to join forces with Civo as they aligned with our cloud native and portable vision.

The Ultimate Kubernetes Cost Monitoring And Management Guide

While Kubernetes enables teams to deliver more value faster, understanding and controlling Kubernetes costs remains challenging. You have disposable, replaceable compute resources constantly coming and going across a range of infrastructure types. Yet at the end of the month, you only get a billing line item for EKS costs and several EC2 instances.

Kubernetes Node Vs. Pod Vs. Cluster: What's The Difference?

Kubernetes is increasingly the standard for deploying, running, and maintaining cloud-native applications running in containers. Kubernetes (K8s) automates most container management tasks, empowering engineers to manage high-performing, modern applications at scale. Meanwhile, surveys from VMware and Gartner reveal that insufficient Kubernetes expertise prevents many organizations from fully adopting containerization. Understanding how Kubernetes components work removes this barrier.

When AI Writes the Code, Who Keeps Production Running?

The production environment has become a minefield of code nobody really understands. Here’s what’s happening: Development teams are using Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot to ship features at 10x their previous velocity. Product managers are ecstatic. Business stakeholders are thrilled. And somewhere in a war room at 2:17 AM, an SRE is staring at a stack trace for code that was AI-generated three weeks ago, trying to figure out why the payment service just fell over.

The path to self-healing: Re-architecting for massive scale on kubernetes

In the world of network assurance, even a few seconds of delay can result in significant business losses. In this session from Civo Navigate India, Dr. Shivananda R Poojara (Head of Cloud Business Unit, Airowire Networks) explains how his team dismantled a massive monolithic service stack and rebuilt it for a high-performance, cloud-native era in just 75 days.
