Keep an eye on remote access to your Kubernetes infrastructure with Datadog Workload Protection

To improve efficiency and reduce cloud spending, teams frequently schedule pods on Kubernetes nodes dynamically, based on available resources. However, this practice has also introduced a new security challenge: The workloads maintained by a development team are now spread between Kubernetes nodes, exposing more hosts and increasing the blast radius when user credentials are compromised.

Product Klip: Istio Developer Dashboard

Troubleshooting issues in a complex service mesh environment, such as traffic failures or authorization problems, often requires the expertise of an SRE or DevOps professional. However, Komodor simplifies this process. Komodor provides developers with the necessary visibility to diagnose service mesh issues on their own. It helps developers easily identify blocked connections and understand the root cause without having to review logs or configuration files.

Autoscaling Made Easy with Rancher Cluster API

Kubernetes has revolutionized application deployment and management. However, manually adjusting cluster sizes to meet fluctuating workloads, without constantly under- or over-provisioning resources, quickly drains platform teams’ time and energy. While traditional cloud provider autoscaling tools are functional, they often fall short when it comes to truly dynamic, Kubernetes-aware scaling, especially in a world with diverse infrastructure.

Kubernetes Is Powerful-But It's Slowing You Down. Here's How to Fix It.

Ask any SRE what slows them down in a Kubernetes incident, and the answer is usually too much information in too many different places. Kubernetes has changed the way we run software. It’s given us incredible flexibility, scalability, and power. But in the years I’ve worked in cloud operations and platform engineering, I’ve also seen how that power comes at a price: complexity.
