The latest News and Information on DevOps, CI/CD, Automation and related technologies.
Today, at Qovery we have moved from Slack to Discord. We are a software company that is solving developer problems - application deployment. Solving developer problems required to have a close contact with the developers community. For team communication, we used a dedicated Slack workspace, for community communication - another one. Discord has been a real lifesaver for us. Let's start to tell you why..
Scylla is an open source database alternative to Apache Cassandra, built to deliver significantly higher throughput, single-digit millisecond latency, and always-on availability for real-time applications. Unlike Cassandra which is written in Java, Scylla is implemented in C++ to provide greater control over low-level operations and eliminate latency issues related to garbage collection.
Identity and access management (IAM) in AWS is a way to grant access to AWS services and collect and transmit data and credentials. Most Kubernetes “Quick Start” guides for AWS do not adequately cover how to manage IAM access in your pods. This blog series will first go over the security issues specific to AWS IAM on Kubernetes, then compare solutions, and then we will end with a detailed walkthrough for setting up your cluster with one of those solutions.
In Part 1 of this series, we demonstrated how to enable PSPs in Rancher, using restricted PSP policy as default. We also showed how this prevented a privileged pod from being admitted to the cluster. Enforcement capabilities of a Pod Security Policy We intentionally omitted particular details about role-based access control (RBAC) and how to link pods with specific PSPs. Let’s move on and dig in more on PSPs.
Gunicorn is a popular application server for Python applications. It uses the Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI), which defines how a web server communicates with and makes requests to a Python application. In production, Gunicorn is often deployed behind an NGINX web server. NGINX proxies web requests and passes them on to Gunicorn worker processes that execute the application.
Today, we announced our $40M funding round led by Telstra Ventures. We have been working with Telstra as a customer for many years. When Telstra Ventures, who was familiar with Telstra’s success in using Rancher and Kubernetes, approached us for a potential funding round, it was a no-brainer. A leading telco like Telstra exemplifies Rancher’s vision to Run Kubernetes Everywhere.
