Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) is a relatively new feature for Linux kernels that has many DevOps, SREs, and engineers excited. But is it a one-stop shop solution for all of your Linux kernel needs? Let’s take a look at what eBPF does well, and how it stacks up against standard Linux iptables.
The idea to fully manage applications and infrastructure using a Git-based workflow, or GitOps, is gaining a lot of traction recently. We are seeing more and more Shipa users adopting GitOps as the cloud-native deployment methodology. While it is no secret that ArgoCD and FluxCD are by far the most used tools today, we see FluxCD users trying to address the challenges below.
How can you run a fully managed Kubernetes in a private cloud at half the cost of Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service)?
A fundamental element of the Kubernetes microservices system is the services model, which gives teams greater understanding of how their applications are deployed. These objects running within pods and containers, by extension, are RESTful since they’re based on APIs. However, DevOps teams can’t hope to run a tight ship without managing their services. Communication and visibility are absolutely crucial in a Kubernetes system.
Kubernetes operations (kOps) is one of the official Kubernetes (K8s) projects. The kOps project allows for rapid deployment of production-grade K8s clusters in multiple cloud platforms. By leveraging yaml manifests, kOps delivers a familiar experience to users who have worked with kubectl. Similar to K8s clusters in popular cloud platforms, kOps helps set up self-managed clusters to easily deliver high availability.
