Don't Panic: A Low-Risk Strategy for Ingress NGINX Retirement

The Ingress NGINX project is winding down. For many organizations, this means planning a migration for critical infrastructure. While the HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller is the natural successor for these workloads, a "rip and replace" strategy isn’t always viable. You might have complex configurations, customized annotations, or deployment freezes that make a sudden switch risky. There's a lower-risk path: Place HAProxy in front of your existing Ingress NGINX deployment.

Build and test your first Kubernetes operator with Go, Kubebuilder, and CircleCI

Kubernetes operators extend the Kubernetes API with custom logic, automating tasks like provisioning, configuration, and policy enforcement. Instead of managing these tasks manually or with ad hoc scripts, Operators codify your workflows into controllers that run natively inside the cluster. In this tutorial, you’ll build a simple operator using Go and Kubebuilder; a framework that scaffolds much of the boilerplate so you can focus on core logic.

NVIDIA Rubin (R100) vs. NVIDIA Blackwell (B200) GPU

Since 1999, when NVIDIA invented the GPU (graphics processing unit), the demand has “skyrocketed”. At CES 2026, CEO Jensen Huang announced their latest GPU, named after Vera Rubin. This follows on from the announcement of their Blackwell lineup only two years ago. Through this blog, we’ll explore what the industry knows about the Vera Rubin so far. Plus, we will take a look at some specs in comparison to the NVIDIA B200 from the Blackwell lineup.

Introducing Konstruct: GitOps-powered IDP in minutes

"I wish I knew about this a couple years ago..." Over my seven years as a cofounder, I've heard some version of that line more than any other. Usually, it comes at the end of a demo to someone who has spent a year getting to something not even close to what they're seeing on my screen. The story is always the same. An organization adopts Kubernetes and arrives at the inevitable conclusion that they need a platform.

AI SRE in Practice: Diagnosing AWS CNI IP Exhaustion Before Widespread Outage

IP address exhaustion in Kubernetes doesn’t announce itself with clear error messages. Pods fail to schedule, services degrade unpredictably, and the symptoms look like a dozen different problems before anyone realizes the cluster has run out of available IP addresses. By the time the root cause becomes clear, multiple services are affected and recovery requires coordination across infrastructure layers.

AI for nuclear safety: Predicting component remaining useful life

As industrial systems become more complex in 2026, the reliability of critical infrastructure depends on shifting from reactive to predictive strategies. In this session from Civo Navigate India, Muthukumar Ganesan, a scientist at the Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR), explores the application of AI and machine learning in securing the future of nuclear energy.
