Security can certainly be a broad brush topic. As a software engineer, you design and build to the best of your ability. In delivery methodologies of years gone by, sometimes security can be viewed as an afterthought e.g running security testing last before deploying. Today with the DevSecOps movement, one more set of concerns moves left towards the developer which is now security.
At Tigera, we strive to innovate at every opportunity thrown at us and deliver what you need! We have listened to what users ask and today we are excited to announce the early preview of Calico Enterprise 3.14. From new capabilities to product supportability and extending partnerships with our trusted partners, let’s take a look at some of the new features in this release.
In May, a team from Grafana Labs descended on Valencia, Spain, to share their latest insights on the cloud native landscape at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU 2022. Along with diving into the future of Kubernetes monitoring with kubectl alpha events and multi-cloud deployments, Grafanistas presented an overview of the Prometheus ecosystem with an eye towards how sparse high-resolution histograms are going to change the game.
96% of companies now use or are in the process of evaluating Kubernetes. As the maturity and complexity of Kubernetes environments grow, costs quickly spiral out of control when an effective strategy for visibility and optimization is not in place.
In May, we hosted our first in-person community meetup speaking about all things Kubernetes. Community members came and engaged in cloud-native discussions with talks from Saiyam Pathak, Kunal Kushwaha, Josh Van Leeuwen, and Walid Shaari. We also featured in ZDNet’s article on the four-day work week which includes an interview with Mark Boost, CEO at Civo. This outlined how employees have attained a better work-life balance with the change as well as why the decision was made.
As the complexity of Kubernetes environments grow, costs can quickly spiral out of control if an effective strategy for optimization is not in place. We’ve compiled expert recommendations and best practices for running cost-optimized Kubernetes workloads on AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud (GCP).
Optimizing Kubernetes costs isn’t an easy task. Kubernetes is as deep a topic as cloud (and even more complex), containing subtopics like: That’s a lot for a busy DevOps team to understand and manage, and doesn’t even consider that line-of-business stakeholders and finance team members should have some understanding of each cost driver’s function and importance to contribute to a successful FinOps Strategy.
VMware Tanzu Mission Control is designed for operations teams to address complexity and increase control of their Kubernetes clusters wherever they live. In order to support customers with their multi-cloud business imperatives, VMware made an early commitment to provide data protection capability in Tanzu Mission Control, designed to help enterprises more confidently and safely run critical workloads on Kubernetes.
Kubecon EU returned to Spain. This time to Valencia, city of paella and horchata and, of course, a great place for big events. We had a great time meeting you all in person, and attending the talks. Here are our hot takes from the event. The main event started on Wednesday, but before that different co-located events took place: Ebpf Day, Cloud Native SecurityCon, and PrometheusDay among others. These events gathered a large number of attendees.
