As Kubernetes continues to gain popularity as a container orchestration system, mastering its command-line interface becomes increasingly vital for DevOps engineers and developers alike. Kubectl, the Kubernetes command-line tool, is an essential component in managing and deploying applications in a Kubernetes cluster. This tool allows you to interact directly with the Kubernetes API server and control the state of your cluster.

In my previous articles, I discussed how to design considerations for observability solutions and how observability can augment your security implementation. In this article, I will discuss how an observability solution can provide valuable insights into your business operations through the collected data from various systems, applications, and services.

With the surge in digitization, the concept of cloud migration has become a fundamental reality for many organizations. VMware, a widely accepted leader in server virtualization, has enabled many businesses to take advantage of virtual machines’ benefits. However, as businesses evolve, so do their requirements. This often leads to the need for moving these VMware-based virtual machines to more flexible and scalable platforms like Microsoft Azure.

InfluxDB Cloud 3.0 is a versatile time series database built on top of the Apache ecosystem. You can query InfluxDB Cloud with the Apache Arrow Flight SQL interface, which provides SQL support for working with time series data. In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of querying InfluxDB Cloud with Flight SQL, using C++. The C++ Flight SQL Client is part of Apache Arrow Flight, a framework for building high-performance data services.

People seem to struggle with the idea that there are no repeat incidents. It is very easy and natural to see two distinct outages, with nearly identical failure modes, impacting the same components, and with no significant action items as repeat incidents. However, when we look at the responses and their variations, we can find key distinctions that shows the incidents as related, but not identical.

While Artificial intelligence (AI) has invaded many industries, the IT industry is reaping the benefits of AI in software engineering practices. The traditional method of relying solely on human coders throughout the entire development lifecycle is gradually becoming obsolete. Instead, AI-augmented software engineering has come into the arena to make the software engineering process faster, easier, and more reliable.

In this post we will explain how to use OpenShift monitoring (alert manager) to monitor NeuVector using NeuVector prometheus-exporter NeuVector has published a Prometheus exporter which we will use in the post.

Building full-stack applications can be challenging, especially when developing the backend and frontend at the same time. In this scenario, frontend teams may have to wait for the backend team to finish building an API before they implement. This is where Mirage.js comes in. In this tutorial, you will explore how to use Mirage.js in frontend applications and mock backend requests for services that have not yet been developed.

Over the past five years, enterprise networking has undergone a significant transformation driven by advancements in technology, the rise of cloud and SaaS applications, the decentralization of the workforce, and the need for agility, scalability, and cost mitigation. These factors have led organizations to shift from on-premise network management systems (NMS) to cloud-managed networking platforms and to adopt technologies like Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN).
