The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
An essential aspect of operating any application is the ability to observe the health and performance of that application and of the underlying infrastructure to quickly resolve issues as they arise. Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) already provides audit logs, operational logs, and metrics along with out-of-the-box dashboards and automatic error reporting to facilitate running reliable applications at scale.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) offers a great foundation to build cloud-native applications by minimizing the expertise needed to operate Kubernetes. However, production-grade enterprise platforms require more than Kubernetes and need to be augmented with additional capabilities to meet requirements. These additional services can be added easily by D2iQ, which is a close AWS partner.
As web applications become more complex, software engineering teams must rely on many different products and services to create the best developer experience. The application development ecosystem has grown beyond version control and hosting deployment. Manually managing the deployment of new features across all services can create a serious bottleneck in the software development lifecycle. It also introduces the risk of human error.
As I’ve written about before, Epinio is built to be very flexible. In this blog, I will highlight several places we can hook into the rest of your existing infrastructure to give you a better experience. If you’re new to Epinio, it’s the application development engine for Kubernetes that lets you to go from code to URL in one step.
We created experimental Docker image which tries to ensure high availability of your web service by dynamically refreshing Cloudflare DNS with healthy endpoints.
Over the last couple of years, Kubernetes (often called K8s) has become the most popular and well-known container orchestration system for automating application deployment, scaling, and management. Scheduling containers at scale in a cloud-native ecosystem is central to the technology. Kubernetes itself is an open-source project, and as such presents challenges for many enterprises especially in regulated industries with strong security requirements and formal SLA commitments.
At Civo we aim to provide users with the tools and knowledge to succeed in the cloud native landscape. So, we’re super excited to announce a brand new tech event, Civo Navigate! Whether you’re looking to join us in person or take part in the event, here’s your guide to all things Civo Navigate.
