Enabling multicloud K8s communication with Skupper

There are many challenges that engineering teams face when attempting to incorporate a multi-cloud approach into their infrastructure goals. Kubernetes does a good job of addressing some of these issues, but managing the communication of clusters that span multiple cloud providers in multiple regions can become a daunting task for teams. Often this requires complex VPNs and special firewall rules to multi-cloud cluster communication.

Building Machine Learning Pipelines with Kubeflow

In part one of this series, I introduced you to Kubeflow, a machine learning platform for teams that need to build machine learning pipelines. In this section, we will learn how to take an existing machine learning project and turn it into a Kubeflow machine learning pipeline, which in turn can be deployed onto Kubernetes. As you are going through this exercise, think about how you can convert your existing machine learning projects into a Kubeflow one.

GitOps: Progressive Deployment and Security with D2iQ Dispatch and Alcide Advisor

GitOps has been around for quite some time now and continues to pique developer interest when it comes to driving operation tools. This technology-agnostic model embraces operations best practices, using Git as a single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and applications.The term GitOps for this operating model is now an industry standard and has rapidly made a name for itself among the Kubernetes and cloud-native communities.

Kubernetes Security: Lateral Movement Detection and Defense

What is Lateral Movement? Lateral movement refers to the techniques that a cyber-attacker uses, after gaining initial access, to move deeper into a network in search of sensitive data and other high-value assets. Lateral movement techniques are widely used in sophisticated cyber-attacks such as advanced persistent threats (APTs).

New and improved dashboards: PromQL, Teams sharing, and more!

To accompany Sysdig’s announcement of the first cloud-scale Prometheus monitoring offering, we had to re-architect our dashboarding experience from the ground up to support the Prometheus query language, PromQL. The query language is the standard method to query metrics within the ecosystem, and it’s an entirely new way to slice and dice metrics within Sysdig Monitor.

Top 4 must-monitor API Gateway metrics

Marc Andreessen famously said, “Software is eating the world.” Dr. Steve Willmott subsequently retorted, “APIs are eating software.” This is because API based architectures are enabling companies to get away from monolithic architectures and move to microservices. Innovative, disruptive companies like Netflix, Airbnb, Uber, Square, and Slack all build their infrastructure and technology using APIs.

Kubernetes RBAC 101: Overview

Cloud native and open source technologies have modernized how we develop software, and although they have led to unprecedented developer productivity and flexibility, they were not built with enterprise needs in mind. A primary challenge is bridging the gap between cloud native and enterprise reality. Enterprises need a centralized Kubernetes management control plane with logging and monitoring that supports security and governance requirements extended through essential Kubernetes frameworks.
