The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Multipass exists to bring Ubuntu-based development to the operating system of your choice. Whether you prefer the GUI of macOS (even on M1), Windows or any other Linux, the unmatched experience of developing software on Ubuntu is there at your fingertips, just one “multipass launch” away. Today, the Multipass team is delighted to enhance this experience for developers working with containerised applications!
Central processing units (CPUs) can be compared to the human brain in that their unique architecture allows them to solve mathematical equations in different ways. x86 is the dominant architecture used in cloud computing at the time of this writing; however, it is worth noting that this architecture is not efficient for every scenario, and its proprietary nature is causing an industry shift toward ARM.
We are excited to announce that D2iQ is now part of Amazon Web Services (AWS) Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Accelerate Program! The AWS ISV Accelerate Program helps ISVs with software solutions that run on or integrate with AWS, drive new business and accelerate sales cycles by connecting the participating ISVs with the AWS Sales organization. The D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) enables AWS customers to quickly achieve Day 2 operations competency in their cloud-native deployments.
If you are a software engineer like myself, two areas that I am not well versed in are networking and storage. Yes, my application has to communicate and yes my application needs to be deployed and requires some storage. Though that is usually the extent of my knowledge. Thanks to using elastic compute from cloud vendors in the last several years, the answer I usually give is “yes, attach 100gb of standard block storage per instance”.
Bare metal Kubernetes is a powerful set of technologies that builds on the best ideas behind the public and private cloud, yet abstracts away some toilsome aspects related to virtualisation management and networking. For operators and users, it provides significant benefits, making it easier and faster to ship and maintain complex, distributed applications.
