What if the industry didn't use Docker? - Geoffrey Huntley, GitPod
The recent announcements by the Docker corporation regarding pricing has prompted some organizations to consider moving to alternatives such as Podman which is - at its core - still Docker. Docker solved many problems in the industry related to distribution of software via encapsulation, but also created software supply chain problems.
From Terraform to GitOps to Pulumi
In a previous post, we talked about the increasing adoption of Platform Engineering teams. The post covered topics such as defining Platform Engineering and the roles and responsibilities of the team. When building an internal platform, a clear goal that many teams want to achieve is: Even though this is key to a successful platform team, this responsibility increases complexity, costs, support time, and more. Not to mention that this can be a long, very long journey.
One cloud IDE to rule them all - Philippe Charrière, GitLab
As a Technical Account Manager (at GitLab) Phillipe often needs to demo GitLab features to help customers gain more "DevOps" (or CI/CD) maturity. So having the ability to create and deploy infrastructure quickly for new demo environments is crucial. This is where Gitpod and Civo come in. In this talk Philippe will run through provisioning a Civo Kubernetes cluster with Gitpod, deploying GitLab Runner on the cluster, connecting to it, and setting up the GitLab Kubernetes integration
Implementing Istio in a Kubernetes cluster
As the complexity of a microservice architecture grows, it becomes important to implement a service mesh for better insights into your cluster and microservices. In this blog, Kristijan explains how Istio can be used as a service mesh, along with a detailed installation steps & configuration setup. Service Mesh? You’ve heard about it, but does it solve something, or is it just another hot buzzword in the industry?
Troubleshooting Pod issues in Kubernetes with Live Tail
With the advent of IaaS (Infrastructure as a service) and IaC (Infrastructure as Code), it is now possible to manage versioning, code reviews, and CI/CD pipelines at the infrastructure level through resource provisioning and on-demand service routing. Kubernetes is the indisputable choice for container orchestration.
Kubespray 2.17 released with Calico eBPF and WireGuard support
Congratulations to the Kubespray team on the release of 2.17! This release brings support for two of the newer features in Calico: support for the eBPF data plane, and also for WireGuard encryption. Let’s dive into configuring Kubespray to enable these new features.
Leveraging Your First GitOps Engine - Flux
Not to muddy the waters with one more prefix in front of ops, GitOps is a newer DevOps paradigm that slants towards the developer. As the names states, GitOps is focused around Git, the source code management tool. As a developer, leveraging an SCM is one of the quintessential tools of the trade; allowing for collaboration and more importantly saving your hard work off of your machine.
General availability announcement
After nearly 2 years of perfecting our product during our beta phase and just over 5 months since we opened for early access, I have great pleasure in announcing that Civo is now 'General Availability'. It's taken us over 4 years to get to where we are today, with a colossal amount of work being contributed by our team to build the Civo platform and developer eco-system. I can honestly say that we're lucky to have so many amazing people at Civo.
