The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
As microservices gain in popularity, containers have become a hot topic for developers. But how do they differ from virtual machines? Will containers replace virtual machines? And when should you choose containers over virtual machines? When it comes to defining virtual machines, the name says it all – machines (servers or desktops) that have been virtualized.
Earlier this month the Kubernetes project discovered a security issue affecting multitenant clusters: If a potential attacker can already create or edit services and pods, then they may be able to intercept traffic from other pods (or nodes) in the cluster. An attacker that is able to create a ClusterIP service and set the spec.externalIPs field can intercept traffic to that IP.
LogicMonitor recently released LM Container Argus v4 and has made monitoring Kubernetes clusters even easier. We have updated our Add Kubernetes Cluster wizard to make customization easier in the installation process. Start by going through the normal configuration settings, and then you will have the option to edit additional configuration settings to the CollectorSet Controller and Argus YAML files.
Sematext Logs is a Log Management-as-a-service. Think of it as your own central location for logs in the cloud. If you prefer or need to keep logs in your own environment instead of shipping it to the cloud Sematext Enterprise, designed to run on your own infrastructure, makes that possible. You can collect logs from any part of your software stack or infrastructure, IoT devices, network hardware, and much more.
