The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
Kubernetes (also known as k8s or “kube”) is an open source container orchestration platform that automates many of the manual processes involved in deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications.
Many will rightly point to 2023 as a year of AI, and it certainly was that. But what has really struck me in 2023 were the incremental, often less headline-grabbing changes, that have made developers’ lives easier and unlocked so much innovation. Kubernetes has continued to mature this year, going ‘under the hood’ in organization’s infrastructure and regularly used to support major use cases by large, enterprise-level businesses.
2023 was a big year for sustainability. More and more tech teams are realizing that sustainability is not a nice to have but a strategic priority for businesses. This conviction extends from leadership through to developers. I have been blown away by developers leading the charge to create innovative new tools for accountability and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
With 2023 drawing to a close, the final OpenObservability Talks of the year focused on what happened this year in open source, DevOps, observability and more, with an eye towards the future. I was delighted to be joined by a special guest, Kelsey Hightower, a renowned figure in the tech community, especially known for his contributions to the Kubernetes ecosystem.
Kubernetes stands out as a powerful orchestrator, managing the deployment, scaling, and operation of containerized workloads. A key component of Kubernetes observability and troubleshooting capabilities is the generation of events. These events serve as vital records, documenting incidents and changes within the cluster, offering real-time insights into the health and dynamics of the system.
