KU054: OpenTelemetry: Open Source Observability
Observability is foundational to application and infrastructure performance. That’s why it’s fitting that OpenTelemetry is the second most active project in the CNCF after Kubernetes. Today CNCF ambassador Dotan Horovits tells us about the project: OpenTelemetry is a uniform, vendor-agnostic observability framework for generating and collecting telemetry data across both infrastructure and application, across different...

Is WebAssembly (Wasm) here to replace containers? Not really, says guest Matt Butcher. Instead, Wasm is here for a specific kind of workload: One that needs to start super fast (under a millisecond), handle something, and then shutdown. Containers are still best for running very long, I/O intensive multithreaded workloads. Matt, Michael, and Kristina discuss... Read more »

KU050: CI/CD for Platform Engineering
CI/CD is not a villain. GitOps is not some kind of Kubernetes way of sneaking around it. In fact, GitOps falls under the CI/CD umbrella. Marcus Noble joins the show today to talk about how he uses a Kubernetes-native, open-source CI/CD framework called Tekton to test Kubernetes cluster creation, configuration, and deletion based on changes...

KU049: Security Frameworks, Tools, and Strategies for Kubernetes
Kubernetes is designed to be highly scalable and highly dynamic… a perfect habitat for cryptominers to terminal shell into and then exploit your workload’s resources to the max. And that’s just one example of security threats Kubernetes users need to prepare against. Nigel Douglas from Sysdig joins Michael Levan and Kristina Devochko to give you... Read more »
