The Ultimate Kubernetes Cost Monitoring And Management Guide

While Kubernetes enables teams to deliver more value faster, understanding and controlling Kubernetes costs remains challenging. You have disposable, replaceable compute resources constantly coming and going across a range of infrastructure types. Yet at the end of the month, you only get a billing line item for EKS costs and several EC2 instances.

Scaling Argo CD Past 50 Clusters: GitOps, Pipelines, & Governance

Is your engineering team hitting the "Argo Ceiling"? Argo CD is incredible at syncing state, but as you scale past 20, 50, or 100 clusters, the maintenance tax skyrockets. In this webinar, we break down why the "hub and spoke" model of GitOps creates isolated silos, leading to "tab fatigue," massive security blast radiuses, and the need for thousands of lines of brittle CI "glue code" just to handle basic release orchestration.

The story behind Konstruct: Lessons learned scaling GitOps

In 2024, Civo acquired Konstruct (formerly Kubefirst) to reinforce our commitment to simplifying cloud computing complexities. When this acquisition was made, it began a whole new chapter for the team behind Konstruct. Over the years, we assembled our team by working with a community of thousands of engineers in what can be a very complex cloud native environment. We were fortunate to join forces with Civo as they aligned with our cloud native and portable vision.

Native Nix Support in Artifactory: The Binary Cache for the Enterprise

The “works on my machine” era is officially over. Nix is changing the way we think about software by treating packages as functional, immutable values, ensuring that a build works exactly the same way every time, on every machine. But while Nix excels on a local laptop, scaling that level of reproducibility across a global enterprise has historically been a challenge.

Getting started with Windsurf and CircleCI

AI coding assistants are transforming how developers write software. Tools like Windsurf can generate entire modules, refactor complex code, and fix bugs in seconds. But speed comes with a tradeoff: AI-generated code can introduce subtle bugs, security vulnerabilities, or breaking changes that slip past even experienced developers. That’s where continuous integration comes in. CI acts as a safety net, automatically testing every change before it reaches production.
