We’re excited to announce our beta launch of Kentik Kube, an industry-first solution that reveals how K8s traffic routes through an organization’s data center, cloud, and the internet. With this launch, Kentik can observe the entire network — on prem, in the cloud, on physical hardware or virtual machines, and anywhere in between.

We are proud to introduce SUSE Edge 2.0, which will empower customers to accelerate and scale edge infrastructures and transform edge operations.

Earlier this year, when Codefresh announced the first course in our GitOps for Argo certification program – GitOps Fundamentals – we had high hopes that the course would satisfy the community’s pent-up demand for practical GitOps knowledge. To meet this demand, we designed a course that features lab environments to dramatically improve the learning experience. Each student gets a lab environment pre-configured with everything they need to learn GitOps using Argo CD.

Here at Civo, we have created over 50 free video guides and tutorials to help you navigate Kubernetes: from understanding the basic need for and function of containers, to launching and scaling your first clusters. You can start learning everything you need to know to get started with Kubernetes today with our nine modules which were created by in-house experts at Civo!

Today, I am happy to see the public release of Helm-Dashboard, Komodor’s second open-source project, after ValidKube, and my first since joining the team as Head of Open Source. It’s a compelling challenge to try and solve the pain points of Helm users, but more than anything it’s a labor of love. So it is with love that we’re now sharing this project with the community, and I’m excited to imagine where it will go from here.

We are thrilled to announce you can now scan your environment variables for secrets with the new env-variable-secrets-scanner-policy in Kubewarden! This policy rejects a Pod or workload resources such as Deployments, ReplicaSets, DaemonSets , ReplicationControllers, Jobs, CronJobs etc. if a secret is found in the environment variable within a container, init container or ephemeral container. Secrets that are leaked in plain text or base64 encoded variables are detected.

Ask any cloud software team using Kubernetes (and most do); this powerful container orchestration technology is transformative, yet often truly challenging. There’s no question that Kubernetes has become the de-facto infrastructure for nearly any organization these days seeking to achieve business agility, developer autonomy and an internal structure that supports both the scale and simplicity required to maintain a full CI/CD and DevOps approach.

GitOps modernizes software management and operations by allowing developers to declaratively manage infrastructure and code using a single source of truth, usually a Git repository. Many development teams and organizations have adopted GitOps procedures to improve the creation and delivery of software applications. For a GitOps initiative to work, an orchestration system like Kubernetes is crucial.

With 96% of organizations either using or evaluating Kubernetes and over 7 million developers using Kubernetes around the world, according to a recent CNCF report, it’s safe to say that Kubernetes is eating up the world and has become the de-facto orchestrating system of cloud-native applications. The benefits of adopting K8s are obvious in terms of efficiency, agility, and scalability.

Containerization is a type of virtualization in which a software application or service is packaged with all the components necessary for it to run in any computing environment. Containers work hand in hand with modern cloud native development practices by making applications more portable, efficient, and scalable.
