中文版 – In April, 2019, AWS announced the general availability of Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA), an EC2 network device that improves throughput and scalability of distributed High Performance Computing (HPC) and Machine Learning (ML) workloads. Today, we’re excited to announce support of EFA through AWS ParallelCluster. EFA is a network interface for Amazon EC2 instances […]

中文版 – It’s been six months since we launched Firecracker at re:Invent, and we’ve been thrilled by the reception that the open source community has given us. Over these six months, we have merged 87 commits from 30+ external contributors into the Firecracker master branch (representing ~24% of all commits in that time span). These […]

中文版 – In this post, we will demonstrate how to create a fully-managed Kubernetes cluster on AWS using Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS), and how to run distributed deep learning training jobs using Kubeflow and the AWS FSx CSI driver. We then will discuss best practices to optimize machine learning training performance […]

中文版 – Kubernetes core components provide a rich set of metrics you can use to observe what is happening in the Control Plane. You can see how many watchers are on each resource in the API Server, the number of audit trail events, the latency of the requests to the API Server, and much more. These […]

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 […]

中文版 – Rancher is a popular open-source tool used by many organizations to manage Kubernetes clusters. Rancher has extended support for Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS). With this capability, Rancher users no longer need to directly manage their own Kubernetes clusters on AWS. Using Amazon EKS with Rancher combines the ease of […]

中文版 – Open Policy Agent (OPA) is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) sandbox project designed to help you implement automated policies around pretty much anything, similar to the way the AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) works. With OPA, you can write a very slimmed-down policy using a language called rego which is based […]
