The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Epinio is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that allows developers to go from the application source to a URL in one step. Try Epinio today or try it tomorrow — but make sure you try it. We just released our first stable version (Epinio v1.0.0) and we think you are going to love it. Let me tell you why.
It’s the type of nightmare that leaves developers in a cold sweat. Imagine waking up to a message from your team that simply says, “We lost a cluster,” but it’s not a dream at all. InfluxDB Cloud runs on Kubernetes, a cloud application orchestration platform. We use an automated Continuous Delivery (CD) system to deploy code and configuration changes to production. On a typical workday, the engineering team delivers between 5-15 different changes to production.
Last week, I showed you how to build and deploy a Go Web application (or API backend for a frontend framework like React or Vue) to a cloud provider, using Docker as a process manager. In this post, which is part of two of this series, I will show you a second method of deploying a Go Web app or backend to any cloud, using Docker Swarm.
Fluentd is an open source data collector widely used for log aggregation in Kubernetes. Monitoring and troubleshooting Fluentd with Prometheus is really important to identify potential issues affecting your logging and monitoring systems. In this article, you’ll learn how to start monitoring Fluentd with Prometheus, following Fluentd docs monitoring recommendations. You’ll also discover the most common Fluentd issues and how to troubleshoot them.
CI/CD systems follow a multi-tiered environments pattern: development, testing, staging, and production release are all part of this process. Each setting in this cycle could have a variety of set ups and configurations. As a result, having to set up separate configurations for different environments could be inconvenient and burdensome. In this tutorial, we will take a look at what Docker is and how it has freed developers from set-up problems and port clashes.
As the container orchestration platform of choice for many enterprises, Kubernetes (or K8s, as it’s often written) is an obvious target for cybercriminals. In its early days, the sheer complexity of managing your own Kubernetes deployment meant it was easy to miss security flaws and introduce loopholes. Now that the platform has evolved and been managed, Kubernetes services are available from all major cloud vendors, and Kubernetes security best practices have been developed and defined.
