In this post, we will show you how you can use AWS CloudFormation to automatically deploy infrastructure that is preconfigured to send metrics and logs to Datadog.

With the start of the new year, it is a good time to look at what changes have happened in our industry over the last 12 months. With the help of a few recent industry surveys and some of our own perspective, I’d like to summarize some of the key trends that we are seeing.

I talk a lot about containerd. I write blog posts about it, speak at conferences about it, give introductory presentations internally at IBM about it and tweet (maybe too much) about it. Due to my role at IBM, I’ve helped IBM’s public cloud Kubernetes service, IKS, start a migration to use containerd as the CRI runtime in recent releases and similarly helped IBM Cloud Private (our on-premises cloud offering) offer containerd as a tech preview in the past two releases.

This blog describes steps to migrate Rancher 2.1.x from a single node installation to a high availability installation.

It’s the beginning of a new year and when it comes to computing, going serverless is the resolution of many engineering teams. At Stackery, this excites us because we know how significant the positive impacts of serverless are and will be. So much, in fact, that we’re already thinking about its applications for next year and beyond.

As the CEO of Stackery, I have had a unique, inside view of serverless since we launched in 2016. I get to work alongside the world’s leading serverless experts, our customers, and our partners and learn from their discoveries. It’s a new year: the perfect time to take stock of professional progress, accomplishments, and goals.

This blog describes how Rancher and its managed kubernetes clusters can be affected by the recent announcement detailing the vulnerabilities of the proxying external IPs and dashboard.

Learn how to create a hybrid Kubernetes registry for any application deployed on any cluster managed by Rancher and JFrog Artifactory.

If you missed the first 2 tips, go back and read 5 Tips to Avoid Deadlocks in Amazon RDS (Part 1), and then come back for the last 3 tips on deadlock avoidance. Once again, I want to re-emphasize that RDS is not actually capable of creating deadlocks — it merely reports them from the underlying database engine.
