The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Log management plays an important role in helping to debug Kubernetes clusters, improve their efficiency, and monitor them for any suspicious activity. Kubernetes is an open-source cluster management software designed for the deployment, scaling, and operations of containerized applications.
Kubernetes and containers are changing how applications are built, deployed and managed. Rancher makes application deployment simple and easily portable regardless of location or infrastructure. At Citrix, we operate on the same core principle. We provide application delivery and load balancing solutions for a high-quality user experience, to any device, across any network, for your web, traditional and cloud-native applications regardless of where they are hosted.
In this previous article we learned to create our own Docker images to test and distribute our applications regardless of their dependencies. As we know, Docker is a wonderful tool for collaborative programming work, allowing to work in a virtually identical environment regardless of the operating system you are in.
There’s no one-size-fits-all migration path for moving legacy applications to the cloud. These applications typically reside on either physical servers, virtual machines or on premises. While the goal is generally to rearchitect or redesign an application to leverage cloud-native services, it’s not always the answer.
In a previous article, we examined service meshes in detail. Briefly, a service mesh takes care of network functionality for the applications running on your platform. As Kubernetes has matured as a technology, service meshes have become a hot topic, with various products being developed to solve the challenges associated with areas like traffic management, security, and observability. This article will compare three service meshes.
Datadog operates large-scale Kubernetes clusters in production across multiple clouds. Along the way, audit logs have been extremely helpful for tracking user interactions with the API server, debugging issues, and getting clarity into our workloads. In this post, we’ll show you how to leverage the power of Kubernetes audit logs to get deep insight into your clusters.
