Category: Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes

by Wesley Pettit and Michael Hausenblas AWS is built for builders. Builders are always looking for ways to optimize, and this applies to application logging. Not all logs are of equal importance. Some require real-time analytics, others simply need to be stored long-term so that they can be analyzed if needed. It’s therefore critical to […]

Spinnaker is a continuous delivery platform, originally developed by Netflix, for releasing software changes rapidly and reliably.

中文版 – The Container Storage Interface (CSI) is a standard for exposing storage on top of container orchestrators such as Mesos or Kubernetes. CSI gives storage providers like AWS the opportunity to create a thin wrapper which will allow a Kubernetes cluster to automatically provision and manage the entire lifecycle of the storage class. Storage […]

中文版 – Observability in a service mesh gives you details about the topology of your microservices-based application. It tells what microservices are part of the service mesh, how are they connected, how much traffic is routed to them, and other details. This post from Heiko Rupp shows how Kiali can be used to visualize an […]

中文版 – Custom AWS Lambda Runtimes were introduced at re:Invent 2018. Knative is an open source project to build, deploy, and manage serverless workloads. This post by Sebastien Goasguen explains that TriggerMesh’s Knative Lambda Runtime is a custom runtime that can run a Lambda function on Knative running on an Amazon EKS cluster. –Arun AWS […]
