How Kubernetes enhances DevOps practices

Source:-searchitoperations.techtarget.com Kubernetes isn’t necessary for DevOps, and you don’t need a DevOps team to adopt Kubernetes container management. But, here are all the ways that these two are better together. Using Kubernetes in a DevOps toolchain enables distributed orchestration to manage infrastructure and configurations consistently across multiple environments. Automated application deployment and scaling through container management adds operational resiliency to the speed of DevOps pipelines. This benefit is most apparent for organizations that run multiple platforms, such as on-premises and

Why securing Kubernetes requires a native toolset

Source:-cloudcomputing-news.net A now-classic 2014 study by IBM concluded that an astonishing 95 percent of all digital security breaches it investigated were either caused, or contributed to, by human error – presumably including those of the software developers. The remaining few were largely the results of technical faux pas. Subsequent disclosures about breaches and attacks have cited the same finding – with all kinds of digital tools, it’s easy for people to make mistakes. Often the root cause is granting privileges

Common Container and Kubernetes Vulnerabilities

Source:-containerjournal.com As Kubernetes gains more prominence, concern is mounting over how we gauge its effectiveness and mitigate container security vulnerabilities. Such vulnerabilities could leave a cluster unsecured or a container compromised, open to misuse by malicious users for things such as cryptomining. I recently spoke with Rory McCune, principal security consultant at NCC Group, to discover what common vulnerabilities exist in today’s containers and container orchestration environments. McClune will be leading the Mastering Container Security IV training, a deep two-day

Kubernetes Updates Hit by COVID-19, BLM Recognition

Source:-sdxcentral.com The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and recent social strife has pushed the Kubernetes project to alter its quarterly update schedule through the end of the year, though it’s looking to get back in track (like the rest of the world) in 2021. The Kubernetes 1.19 release should have dropped at some point around June 30. That would have maintained what had been a near metronome-like schedule of platform updates dating back to its initial 1.0 release in mid-2015. However, external

How to avoid a Kubernetes food fight!

Source:-cio.com National Lampoon’s Animal House is a 1978 American, comedy film with an iconic scene. Bluto (played by John Bulushi) yells “Food fiiiiiiiight!”, and a crazy chaos ensues as the students wildly fling food all over the cafeteria. As I listen to CIOs describe how their employees are installing the free, open source Kubernetes software, that food fight scene plays out in my mind. So why is there so much chaos concerning Kubernetes installations? Well, because it’s free–meaning anyone can

VMware Hands Control of Kubernetes Ingress Project Contour Over to CNCF

Source:-datacenterknowledge.com Joe Beda, one of its creators, said one reason for the move was reassuring non-VMware developers that Contour’s development wouldn’t be steered by a single company. When the Cloud Native Computing Foundation announced a couple of weeks ago that it had accepted the Kubernetes Ingress controller, Contour, as a project, its decision only made sense. After all, CNCF is already the home for both Kubernetes and Envoy, both necessary for running Contour, as well as about all other software
