VCs are Betting Big on Kubernetes: Here are 5 Reasons Why

I worked at Google for six years. Internally, you have no choice — you must use Kubernetes if you are deploying microservices and containers (it’s actually not called Kubernetes inside of Google, it’s called Borg). But what was once solely an internal project at Google has since been open-sourced, and has become one of the most talked-about technologies in software development and operations.

[Webinar] Take a Walk On the Safe Side: Using Feature Flags W/ Komodor & Sentry

Feature flags are enabling developers to deploy with confidence, safe in the knowledge that they can always disable buggy features in production without changing the code. While this increases the speed, stability, and frequency of software updates, it’s no magic trick and still requires planning in advance and using the right tools.

Using Calico with Kubespray

In the Kubernetes ecosystem there are a variety of ways for you to provision your cluster, and which one you choose generally depends on how well it integrates with your existing knowledge or your organization’s established tools. Kubespray is a tool built using Ansible playbooks, inventories, and variable files—and also includes supplemental tooling such as Terraform examples for provisioning infrastructure.

Ship Logs from Docker with the Logz.io Fluentd Proxy

The past year has been significant for continued development of both DevOps practices and new developments across the open source community. To that end, Logz.io is moving forward with renewed support for the Fluentd log shipper. This new proxy will serve as an alternative to Filebeat and Logstash, which recently moved away from open source licensing. Additionally, this integration utilizes an HTTP proxy instead of the SOCKS5 proxy necessary for Filebeat.

Code with Codespaces and deploy with Qovery

12 years ago, when I started to work as a Developer, I would not have bet that I will write software and manage infrastructure right from my browser one day. At the time, web IDE did not exist. And managing infrastructure from the browser was super early. Today, it is all possible, and the future looks bright! I am proud to announce that you can edit your code via GitHub Codespaces right from Qovery. Take a look at this short introduction video. Happy coding!
