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.

Deploying a new feature to production is a momentous occasion. It's important to ensure that everything goes properly at this stage, as deployments tend to be error-prone when not handled correctly. To examine why this is and how you can avoid it, let's take a look at the different types of deployments available and where some of them fall short.

In their presentation at the swampUp 2020 conference, IT service manager Marija Kuester and her team at Siemens AG revealed how they use JFrog Artifactory to deploy and scale their Inner Source Hub service, and meet the challenging needs of their key business stakeholders. In the recorded session, the Siemens team outlined the service architecture with rich insights into the IT service deployment and internal developer adoption.

Without SRECon happening this year and the world turned upside down from COVID-19, we set out to hold a virtual event to bring SREs together to share their experiences of what has changed. Last week’s SRE from Home was exactly that. With 1900 registrants, 20 lively Slack channels, six illuminating and entertaining talks from a diverse range of experts in the field and our #askanSRE panel answering attendees’ questions with a candid generosity, it was an amazing, jam-packed day.

Kubernetes is the most popular Open Source technology of the last five years. It was created by Google to allow companies to use container (Docker) applications in production. Today, Kubernetes is the new standard for running applications in the Cloud or on its servers (on-premise). I even heard from a Cloud architect from Azure: "our customers no longer come to us to do Cloud, but to do Kubernetes". That's to say how much a utility software* upsets a whole ecosystem.

Focusing on these five essential workflows for secure DevOps will help you get started implementing monitoring, security, and compliance for containers and Kubernetes. You might be starting to adopt DevOps and find that it dramatically simplifies deploying applications in containers and Kubernetes. However, you probably also found that it adds a new set of complexities for managing, securing, and troubleshooting applications.

Today, we are excited to announce a faster onboarding for Kubernetes visibility and security. With the SaaS-first approach and new enhancements to the Sysdig Secure DevOps Platform, you can get results after just a five-minute setup. This release includes a new guided onboarding process, out-of-the-box dashboards as part of curated essential workflows, and a new Sysdig Essentials tier. 5 minutes to onboard secure DevOps - YouTube An error occurred.
