Identifying the right the right Service-Level Indicators is mission-critical for any SRE team responsible for meeting Service-Level Objectives and reporting on them. Find out how to sift through mountains of metrics and fill gaps in your data in order to visualize SLIs that actually matter for effective error budget tracking and actionable alerts in Grafana. Presented by: Jacob Plicque III, Senior Engineer at Grafana Labs at Grafana East Coast Virtual Meetup - August 2021

Join Viktor Farcic and Anais Urlichs in this meetup as we will explore Crossplane through the Civo Crossplane Provider. We will showcase how to create Civo Kubernetes clusters through the Civo Crossplane Provider, we will look at GitOps best practices to manage all of your resources in Kubernetes, and lastly we will provide an overview on how you can take GitOps deployments to the next level with ArgoCD.

Learn how Harvester, SUSE's new HCI platform, can be deployed across bare metal notes with the Tinkerbell provisioning engine.

This time around the topic was Kubernetes service meshes and the role they play in providing visibility and open communication between your pods/containers. Saiyam Pathak, Director of Technical Evangelism at Civo, will be led the talk and discussed the concept of service meshes and best practices. Kai Hoffman, Developer Advocate at Civo, outlined the Service Mesh Interface, a project to standardise service mesh specifications on Kubernetes.

Introducing Hypper, a new package manager for Kubernetes designed with cluster administrators in mind. Hypper is built on Helm and charts but makes some different assumptions around multi-tenancy and dependent charts (which can be useful with CRD handling). Where Helm assumes a user could be one of many users running in multi-tenant, Hypper assumes the user is a cluster administrator managing a cluster.

Virtual Time Series Meetups are events for everyone who is passionate or curious about time series data and how it can be used. In the April 2021 edition, Mirko D. Comparetti shares how he use InfluxDB to monitoring his internet service provider.

Four our seventh online meetup, we discussed the critical topic of cloud-native security, focusing on Kubernetes. We looked into security of clusters, containers and code as well as explore some applications that help make sure your setups are secure. With talks from Civo Director of Evangelism Saiyam, plus Civo Ambassadors Jahred Love and Milind Chawre. Get free credit to try the world’s first K3s-powered, managed Kubernetes service.

Introducing Rancher KIM, the Kubernetes Image Manager. KIM is a proper Kubernetes client that installs and manages the back-end services required to support its focus on delivering a `docker build` (and related image management) compatible experience to your development workflow. This means you can download the KIM executable for your client platform and run `kim build --tag your/image:tag .`, just as you would invoke `docker build`, and have the image immediately available on your single-node K3s cluster. There's no need to push the image to an external repository nor export it to a tarball and then import it into K3s containerd.

Our CEO Mark Boost looks back at the Civo story so far, and our vision beyond the KUBE100 beta. Taken from our Online Meetup #6 session where we discussed our plans for ending the KUBE100 beta in the coming months, plus some of the exciting recent developments and future features we have in the works. Get free credit to try the world’s first K3s-powered, managed Kubernetes service.

As we move towards the end of our Kubernetes beta and get ready to "go-live" we discuss some of the exciting recent developments and future plans. We'll be answering your questions live on the call, as well as:
