Kubernetes has emerged as the de facto standard for container orchestration in modern software development, allowing organizations to manage and scale containerized applications easily. As a highly dynamic and distributed system, however, Kubernetes can be challenging to manage and maintain at scale. One of the most critical aspects of maintaining a stable and secure Kubernetes cluster is monitoring the object configurations and tracking the changes over a period of time.

Azure Stack HCI is a virtualized workload solution from Microsoft that allows businesses to run Windows and Linux apps and services in a hybrid on-premise/cloud environment. Built on top of Windows Server, Azure Stack HCI is an example of hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI). This technology virtualizes conventionally hardware-defined systems like storage and networking to create flexible, efficient infrastructure solutions.

The official CircleCI extension for Visual Studio Code is now available for anyone to download on the VS Code Marketplace. This extension was developed by the Developer Experience team of CircleCI and it includes two sets of features: the pipeline manager and the config helper. The config helper provides language support for CircleCI YAML files.

Kubernetes can be tough to troubleshoot and remediate fast, especially when you have many interdependent services. This blog, part 3 of 3 in the “8 SRE Best Practices to Help Developers Troubleshoot Kubernetes” series, describes the Kubernetes observability foundation StackState has built to support SRE best practices and enable rapid remediation of issues.

TeamCity is a CI/CD server that provides out-of-the-box support for unit testing, code quality tracking, and build automation. Additionally, TeamCity integrates with your other tools—such as version control, issue tracking, package repositories, and more—to simplify and expedite your CI/CD workflows.

Looking to understand the difference between Ansible vs. Puppet? In a DevOps landscape crowded with different tools that can handle configuration management, complex tasks, and compliance requirements— you’ll want to make sure you are equipped with the right tool for your org’s needs.

Kubernetes is a container orchestration system for automating deployment and managing containerized applications. Helm is a Kubernetes package manager that helps you define, install, and upgrade Kubernetes applications. It lets you define reusable templates for Kubernetes components (deployment, service, hpa, service account, etc.) that can be published and shared across applications. In this tutorial, you will learn how to build and install Helm charts for your application to an AWS EKS cluster.

As the amount of data generated by organizations grows exponentially, the need for efficient and cost-effective storage solutions becomes critical. Cloud storage providers like Microsoft Azure offer a range of storage options to meet these demands. One such option is Azure Cool Tier Storage, a part of Azure Blob Storage, which is designed for cost-effective storage of infrequently accessed data.

HAProxy Technologies attended Kubernetes Community Days France 2023, where 800 participants gathered to discuss cloud-native and DevOps technologies. It’s always a delight to interact with the heart of the industry and hear how professionals and hobbyists are implementing HAProxy as an ingress controller, load balancer, API gateway, and security solution. If we summarized KCD France 2023 in one word, it would be “community.”
