To get the best performance out of your Kubernetes cluster, SREs and software engineers must have enough knowledge and instruments to find misconfiguration and bottlenecks. At the same time, thanks to Kubernetes’ ever-growing popularity, there is a global shortage of expertise on the platform.

I’m pleased to share that G2, the world’s largest and most trusted tech marketplace, has recognized our solutions in its 2023 Winter Report. We received a total of 15 badges across our business units for Rancher, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), SLE Desktop and SLE Real Time – including the Users Love Us badge for all products – as well as three badges for the openSUSE community with Leap and Tumbleweed.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is a fully managed container orchestration service that enables users to easily run, manage and scale containers on AWS. With ECS, you can deploy containers either on a cluster of Amazon EC2 instances or on AWS Fargate, a serverless computing engine for containers. In this article, we’ll look at how these two launch types compare and explore how to start using them.

As mentioned in our documentation, Cribl Stream is built on a shared-nothing architecture. Each Worker Node and its processes operate separately and independently. This means that the state is not shared across processes or nodes.This means that if we have a large data set we need to access across all worker processes, we have to get creative. There are two main ways of doing this: In this blog, we’ll walk through how to deploy a Stream leader, Stream worker, and Redis containers via Docker.

No matter what application you’re building and who your target customers are, everyone can agree that it’s critical to avoid broken deployments. To aid in this goal, many tools and concepts have been invented, with Kubernetes preview environments being one of them. In this post, you’ll get a deeper understanding of how preview environments work, how organizations are using them, and how you can get started yourself.

The DevOps industry has been experiencing rapid growth over the past few years. However, with this growth comes a shortage of skilled DevOps engineers who can efficiently implement and maintain the practices. Organizations are facing the challenge of finding and retaining qualified professionals, but there is a solution. Utilizing the right tools and technologies can empower organizations to overcome the DevOps talent shortage.

Cloud computing and the use of cloud native architectures enable unparalleled performance, flexibility, and velocity. The speed of innovation has driven significant advancements across industries, but as digitalization continues pushing applications and services to the cloud, bad actors’ intrusion techniques have also become more sophisticated.

Public cloud users continue to get stung by unexpected costs due to the challenges faced when working with or moving workloads into the cloud. When organizations see this surge in their costs, it typically requires the process of cloud cost optimization to tackle the problem. Cloud cost optimization is the task of minimizing cloud spending by enforcing best practices and appropriate cost-efficient resources.

This article was priginally published on the CNF blog and is written by Cameron Pavey. Scroll down for the author’s bio. Docker is an increasingly popular choice for businesses dealing with containerized applications. However, as with any new technology, Docker introduces complexities that need to be managed. Some of these complexities relate to infrastructure and application monitoring.

In 2022, Kubernetes continued to mature and gain widespread adoption as it crossed the chasm into the mainstream. Following are the predictions we see for Kubernetes in 2023.
