PostgreSQL is an open source database known for its reliability and performance. It’s used across many industries and applications, and is especially a favorite of web developers. All major web frameworks support PostgreSQL natively, from node.js and Django to Rails and Spring, so its adaptation is relatively broad across the internet for site backend systems. As with any database, developers need tools to work with them. Pgweb is an open source, web-based client for PostgreSQL.

Many organizations use Kubernetes to quickly ship new features and improve the reliability of their services. Rancher enables teams to reduce the operational overhead of managing their cloud-native workloads — but getting continuous visibility into these environments can be challenging. In this post, we’ll explore how you can quickly start monitoring orchestrated workloads with Rancher’s built-in support for Prometheus and Grafana.

When your company is born in the first Industrial Revolution, how do you stay relevant in the digital age? For Schneider Electric, the answer is continuous innovation, driven by its heritage in the electricity market. Founded in the 1880s, Schneider Electric is a leading provider of energy and automation digital solutions for efficiency and sustainability.

Kubernetes provides a powerful networking model for microservices. One of the pillars of this model is that each pod has its own IP address and is directly addressable within the cluster. As a consequence, each Kubernetes cluster usually has a flat virtual network that external hosts can’t reach directly. That means routing traffic from clients outside the cluster to services deployed inside the cluster requires some additional work.

When you book a hotel online or with a travel agent, you’ve probably got a wish list that has to do with the size of the room, view, location and amenities. You’re probably not thinking about the technology in the background that makes it all happen. That’s where Hotelbeds comes in. The business-to-business travel technology company operates a hotel distribution platform that travel agents, tour operators, airlines and loyalty programs use to book hotel rooms.

CEO and Co-Founder Sheng Liang has a saying about how we approach open source at Rancher Labs: “Let a thousand flowers bloom.” When we set out to build something, we don’t know if it will turn into a successful product, spark another product idea or be a good idea that doesn’t get traction. The joy is in the journey.

As the Kubernetes ecosystem grows, new technologies are being developed that enable a wider range of applications and use cases. The growth of edge computing has driven a need for some of these technologies to enable the deployment of Kubernetes to low-resource infrastructure to the network edge. In this blog post, we are going to introduce you to one method of deploying k3OS to the edge. You can use this method to automatically register your edge machine to a Rancher instance as a control plane.
