Healthwatch for VMware Tanzu 2.1 Offers Breakthrough Platform Monitoring

Keeping your distributed systems running smoothly has never been easy. To that end, Healthwatch for VMware Tanzu created an “out of the box” option for tracking the health of your app platform. The module proved to be a big upgrade from homegrown monitoring toolchains. Platform teams have since come to rely on Healthwatch’s curated indicators, alerts, and visualizations.

Implementing DevSecOps in a Federal Agency with VMware Tanzu

Unifying three distinct teams—development, security, and operations—around a common approach to get application releases to production is challenging. This post explores how Tanzu Labs partnered with a major branch of the Department of Defense (DoD) to build an automated DevSecOps process using VMware Tanzu and several open source tools.

3 Things You Should Be Doing in Cloud Native in 2021

As we wrap up the first quarter of 2021, we wanted to talk about things we should be doing as part of a cloud native strategy for the remaining 3/4 of the year. Moving from traditional monolithic. architectures to a modern microservices approach has many benefits, but still has the greater majority of us baffled in terms of tapping into its full potential.

Honeypods: Applying a Traditional Blue Team Technique to Kubernetes

The use of honeypots in an IT network is a well-known technique to detect bad actors within your network and gain insight into what they are doing. By exposing simulated or intentionally vulnerable applications in your network and monitoring for access, they act as a canary to notify the blue team of the intrusion and stall the attacker’s progress from reaching actual sensitive applications and data.

The New Wave of Kubernetes: Introducing Serverless Spark

It’s been six years since Kubernetes v1.0 was released in 2015, and since then it’s become a critical technology foundation to deploy modern, cloud native applications with speed, develop them with agility and scale them with flexibility. With a fast-maturing ecosystem, advancements in tooling are making it possible for a new wave of applications to be deployed on Kubernetes.

Automating optimization for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

When running AKS clusters, ideally you want the compute infrastructure to adapt to your Kubernetes workload and not the other way around. VMs should automatically match your application requirements all the time without labor-intensive, hands-on management, and of course, your Azure bill should be as low-cost as possible. However, in trying to achieve this ideal, AKS and Kubernetes users in general, still face significant operational challenges.
