A few days ago, I chatted with Florian Suchan (CTO and Co-Founder at Papershift) about their journey to easy infrastructure autoscaling. As you will see in the article, they tried a wide range of solutions before finding the right fit; if you feel you’re going through the same journey, this article is for you!

We created experimental Docker image which tries to ensure high availability of your web service by dynamically refreshing Cloudflare DNS with healthy endpoints.

Over the last couple of years, Kubernetes (often called K8s) has become the most popular and well-known container orchestration system for automating application deployment, scaling, and management. Scheduling containers at scale in a cloud-native ecosystem is central to the technology. Kubernetes itself is an open-source project, and as such presents challenges for many enterprises especially in regulated industries with strong security requirements and formal SLA commitments.

At Civo we aim to provide users with the tools and knowledge to succeed in the cloud native landscape. So, we’re super excited to announce a brand new tech event, Civo Navigate! Whether you’re looking to join us in person or take part in the event, here’s your guide to all things Civo Navigate.

Kubernetes is the industry's most popular open-source platform for container orchestration. It helps you automate many tasks related to container management. Companies use it to solve their problems related to deployment, scalability, testing, management, etc. However, Kubernetes is complex and requires a steep learning curve. In this article, we will go through some common Kubernetes pitfalls most companies fall to.

While the cloud offers significant benefits compared to traditional on-premise infrastructure, its inherent elasticity and scalability lead to uncontrolled costs. Cloud costs can be opaque and difficult to analyze — and without some system of identifying the source of costs and how to manage them — they can quickly undermine your profit margins. Since Qovery makes it easy to create on-demand environments, it can drastically grow your cloud costs.

The Canonical Kubernetes team is delighted to announce that Canonical Kubernetes 1.25 is now generally available, with Charmed Kubernetes joining our Microk8s release last week, following the release of upstream Kubernetes on 23 August. We consistently follow the upstream release cadence to provide our users and customers with the latest improvements and fixes, together with security maintenance and enterprise support for Kubernetes on Ubuntu.

Developers commonly integrate the code and these frequent modifications in a central repository as part of the software development method is known as continuous integration (CI). Improved software quality, faster quality audit and bug fixes, and quick validation and release cycles are all major goals of continuous integration. Continuous Delivery (CD), which builds on top of Continuous Integration(CI), includes automating both builds and the complete software release process.
