Editor’s note: This post was updated on August 9, 2022, to include a demonstration of how to enable highly available support for HPA. It was also updated on November 12, 2020, to include a demonstration of how to autoscale Kubernetes workloads based on custom Datadog queries using the new DatadogMetric CRD.
By combining traffic replay capabilities from Speedscale with observability from Datadog, SRE Teams can deploy with confidence. It makes sense to centralize your monitoring data into as few silos as possible. With this integration, Speedscale will push the results of various traffic replay conditions into Datadog so it can be combined with the other observability data. Being able to preview application performance by simulating production conditions allows better release decisions. Moreover, a baseline to compare production metrics can provide even earlier signals on degradation and scale problems. Speedscale joined the Datadog Marketplace so customers can shift-left the discovery of performance issues.
In July, we released two new enterprise offerings, CivoStack and Edge! CivoStack is an enterprise-ready hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solution built for security, performance, and scale. To find out more visit our product page! Edge is our purpose-built Kubernetes hosted infrastructure, designed for on-location edge computing. Created with security, compliance and low latency in mind, find out more here.
Cloud services have revolutionized the technical industry, and services and tools of all kinds have been created to help organizations migrate to the cloud and become more scalable in the process. This migration is often referred to as cloud modernization. To successfully implement cloud modernization, you must adapt your existing processes for future feature releases.
Crossplane is an open-source project that lets you turn a Kubernetes cluster into a control plane. Crossplane lets you interact with your cloud provider API from a Kubernetes cluster, enabling you to create cloud resources required by your applications, such as databases or other resources supported by Crossplane for different cloud providers.
