Hello, I’m Callum. I work on Grafana Loki, including the hosted Grafana Cloud Logs offering. Grafana Loki is a distributed multi-tenant system for storing log data — ingestion, querying, all that fun stuff. It also powers Grafana Cloud Logs.

In this Postman load testing tutorial, you’ll learn how to run a large scale load test in Kubernetes using your existing Postman collections. Because HTTP services don’t have a graphical user interface, it’s common to build collections of requests using Postman during the development process. These collections are useful for running quick functionality tests as you develop each endpoint.

Managing Kubernetes version upgrades can be a formidable undertaking. API versions are graduated, new features are added and existing behaviors are deprecated. Version upgrades may also impact applications needed by the Kubernetes platform; affecting services like pod networking or DNS resolution. At LogicMonitor, we ensure our Kubernetes version upgrades are successful through a process designed to instill collaboration and due diligence in a repeatable fashion.

One of the great things about GitFlow is that it makes parallel development very easy by isolating new development from finished work. New development, such as features, is done in feature branches and is only merged back into the main body of code when developers have validated the feature and the code is ready for release. For most development teams, feature validation happens in a staging branch coupled with a single testing environment.
