Fluent Bit is a lightweight, multi-platform tool that can collect, parse, and forward log data from several different sources. Because Fluent Bit has a small memory footprint (~450 KB), it is an ideal solution for collecting logs in environments with limited resources, such as containerized services and embedded Linux systems (e.g., IoT devices).
Kubernetes is the defacto solution for production-ready container orchestration in 2019. Organizations of any size are able to take advantage of Kubernetes’ quick setup, feature-rich API, and growing community to deliver value quickly and at scale. Since Kubernetes is central to many infrastructures, properly monitoring your Kubernetes clusters is critical. In this post, we will go over how Blue Matador monitors each piece of your Kubernetes cluster automatically.
Today we are excited to announce the general availability of Rancher 2.3, the latest version of our flagship product. Rancher, already the industry’s most widely adopted Kubernetes management platform, adds major new features with v2.3.
Container technology is transforming the face of business and application development. 70% of on-premises workloads today are running on the Windows Server operating system and enterprise customers are looking to modernize these workloads and make use of containers. We have introduced support for Windows Containers in Windows Server 2016 and graduated support for Windows Server worker nodes in Kubernetes 1.14 clusters. With Windows Server 2019 we have expanded support in Kubernetes 1.16.
There’s no longer any doubt, Go modules are an accepted part of Golang. The over 300,000 versioned Go modules in JFrog GoCenter shows how they have been embraced for package management by the Go community. With Go modules now enabled by default in Golang 1.13, the number of publicly available modules will grow even more rapidly — and some of them may be contributed by you. But once you share a Go module project with the community, what happens to it? Does it get used?
In new and quickly-expanding fields like serverless, long-standing experts are few and far between. I am excited to welcome Tim Wagner, the original leader of the serverless movement, to the Stackery Board of Directors. Tim spent six years at Amazon Web Services as the General Manager of AWS Lambda, where he oversaw the team that built the success of serverless as a platform. In many ways, we have them to thank for creating the environment that supports Stackery and the serverless ecosystem.
StackStorm is headed for the Linux Foundation! This is a big move and we're excited to share this news with our community. For several months now we've been working with the Linux Foundation, the StackStorm team, and many others inside Extreme to make this move possible. We want to thank everyone for their effort to make this move happen. StackStorm's community continues to grow and the impact the project has had continues to show, and show, and show, and show (you get the point).
