An advanced, open-source technology called Kubernetes is used to manage, scale and deploy containerised applications automatically. Kubernetes offers a strong architecture that enables development and operations teams to effectively manage applications of several containers. Kubernetes was made by Google engineers. They shared it for free in 2014, and now a group called CNCF takes care of Kubernetes. People really like using Kubernetes to manage apps inside containers.

Argo Rollouts is a Kubernetes controller that allows you to perform advanced deployment methods in a Kubernetes cluster. We have already covered several usage scenarios in the past, such as blue/green deployments and canaries. The Codefresh deployment platform also has native support for Argo Rollouts and even comes with UI support for them.

Welcome to the Calico monthly roundup: August edition! From open source news to live events, we have exciting updates to share—let’s get into it!

Cloud Tagging should be automated, not left to humans. Optimization in the cloud is actually really simple. Here’s how we get our customers thinking differently which in turn makes them successful. “To your developers the cloud is like a candy store is to a kid where all the candy is free”. Just as parents need to teach their kids the value of money, you need to teach your developers the value of cloud spend.

Learn how to identify & resolve edge cases when testing complex systems and the best ways to prepare a test suite to validate performance.

The U.S. Department of Defense’s Software Modernization Strategy calls for gaining a competitive advantage to achieve strategic and tactical superiority. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and implementing zero trust security are critical parts of the movement to modernize the U.S. military. To this end, U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen H. Hicks issued a memorandum in February 2022 establishing the formation of the DoD Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Officer (CDAO).

Kubernetes offers undeniable benefits—scalability, portability, reliability—and enterprises everywhere are jumping on the bandwagon to adopt it. However, as incredible as Kubernetes is, its adopters are learning a difficult lesson: Without taking the steps to standardize Kubernetes adoption across the organization, costs and risk can skyrocket.

“What’s New in Sysdig” is back with the August 2023 edition! My name is Jonathon Cerda, based in Dallas, Texas, and the Sysdig team is excited to share our latest feature releases with you.

Kubernetes orchestrates the management of containerized applications, with an emphasis on declarative configuration. A DevOps engineer creates deployment files specifying how to spin up a Kubernetes cluster, which establishes a blueprint for how containers should handle the application workloads.

After a span of 5 long years, we've bid farewell to Cycle's old portal. Our engineering team has been working tirelessly over the last 10 months to bring a fresh, new interface to the platform for our users. This new design encapsulates the wealth of insights we've gained during this period. Just last week, we took the decisive step of launching it into production, and the initial feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
