The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
I am super excited to announce that we have released our "clone environment" feature. It is a massive update!! With one click, you can duplicate an existing environment. The cloning environment has been a significant feature expected by our customers and users for a long time. Thanks to our beta testers and our team for making it live for everyone. Here is a short video showing the clone environment in action
The benefits of containerizing workloads are numerous and proven. But, during infrastructure transformations, organizations are experiencing common, consistent challenges that interfere with accurately forecasting the costs for hosting workloads in Kubernetes. Planning the proper reservations for CPU and memory before migrating to containers is a persistent issue Densify observes across our customers.
The AWS Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) automatically distributes your incoming application traffic across multiple targets, such as EC2 instances, containers, and IP addresses, in one or more Availability Zones, ultimately increasing the availability and fault tolerance of your applications. In other words, ELB, as its name implies, is responsible for distributing frontend traffic to backend servers in a balanced manner.
It can be difficult to comprehend and successfully scale your services as modern orchestrated settings grow larger and more sophisticated. Container monitoring allows you to see the health and performance of your dynamic container infrastructure in real-time. Container monitoring is the practice of collecting and analyzing performance metrics to track the performance of containerized applications built on cloud-based microservices.
Containers have changed how applications are developed and deployed, with Kubernetes ascending as the de facto means of orchestrating containers, speeding development, and increasing scalability. Modern application workloads with microservices and containers eventually need to communicate with other applications or services that reside on public or private clouds outside the Kubernetes cluster. However, securely controlling granular access between these environments continues to be a challenge.
Companies across industries are under tremendous pressure to develop and deploy IT applications and services faster and with far greater efficiency. Traditional enterprise application development falls short since it is not efficient and speedy. IT and business leaders are keen to take advantage of cloud computing as it offers businesses cost savings, scalability at the touch of a button, and flexibility to respond quickly to change.
