Generative AI for Kubernetes: Meet K8sGPT Open Source Project

May 16, 2024 By Dotan Horovits In logz.io

Troubleshooting within Kubernetes environments can be a daunting task. If we could only have a magical artificial intelligence advisor that could gather all the data about what goes on the system, and tell me what’s wrong, and even how to solve it. Wouldn’t it be nice? K8sGPT is a young open source project that uses generative AI to give Kubernetes superpowers to everyone. It recently turned a year old, and is now part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).

Kubernetes Monitoring - What to Monitor, Tools and Best Practices

May 13, 2024 By Prashant Shahi In SigNoz

Kubernetes has since emerged as “THE” container orchestration platform for deploying and managing containerized workloads as a result of its robust capabilities. However, the complexity of its architecture and its dynamic nature present significant challenges in monitoring deployed workloads and the platform itself. Kubernetes monitoring is crucial for maintaining the health, performance, and reliability of containerized applications.

An overview of machine learning security risks

May 10, 2024 By Andreea Munteanu In Canonical

Data is at the heart of all machine learning (ML) initiatives – and bad actors know it. As AI continues to occupy the limelight of modern tech discourse, ML systems are becoming increasingly attractive targets for attack. With the Identity Theft Resource Center reporting a 72% spike in data breaches in 2023, it’s critical to take the proper precautions to ensure your ML projects don’t provide a back door to your data.

May 6, 2024 By Wilson Husin In FireHydrant

When we launched Signals to the world, we were excited to hear how our product resonated with many teams. But with that excitement came an understandable concern: how much time and effort will I have to put in to move from my existing provider to Signals? We hear you — that’s why we built the Signals Migrator tool. And we’re open sourcing it.

When Your Open Source Turns to the Dark Side

May 2, 2024 By Dotan Horovits In logz.io

Not that long ago, in a galaxy that isn’t remotely far away, a disturbance in the open source world was felt with wide-ranging reverberations. Imagine waking up one morning to find out that your beloved open source tool, which lies at the heart of your system, is being relicensed. What does it mean? Can you still use it as before? Could the new license be infectious and require you to open source your own business logic? This doom’s day nightmare scenario isn’t hypothetical.

Open-source Telemetry Pipelines: An Overview

Apr 22, 2024 By Mezmo In Mezmo

Imagine a well-designed plumbing system with pipes carrying water from a well, a reservoir, and an underground storage tank to various rooms in your house. It will have valves, pumps, and filters to ensure the water is of good quality and is supplied with adequate pressure. It will also have pressure gauges installed at some key points to monitor whether the system is functioning efficiently. From time to time, you will check pressure, water purity, and if there are any issues across the system.

How To Harness the Full Potential of ELK Clusters

Apr 19, 2024 By David Benson In Logit.io

The ELK Stack is a collection of three open-source projects, Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana. They operate together to centralize and examine logs and other types of machine-generated data in real time. With the ELK stack, you can utilize clusters for effective log and event data analysis and other uses. ELK clusters can provide significant benefits to your organization, but the configuration of these clusters can be particularly challenging, as there are a lot of aspects to consider.
