The Future of API Gateways on Kubernetes #WordsUnplugged
In this #WordsUnplugged video, we examine how API gateways have evolved, how traditional API gateways fall short in supporting Kubernetes cloud native environments, today's API gateway requirements, why Envoy is the best standard on which to build next-generation API gateways, and the future of API management on #kubernetes.
Unlocking the Power of Programmable Data Planes in Kubernetes with eBPF #WordsUnplugged
In a recent article, Lakmal Warusawithana, Senior Director for Cloud Architecture at WSO2, wrote how programmable data planes offer dynamic control for cloud native applications and how technologies like the extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) and Kubernetes provide an abstraction to improve flexibility, scalability, and performance. In this WordsUnplugged episode, Lakmal, and Kanchana Wickremasinghe, VP and GM for Choreo at WSO2, sit down to talk about eBPF and its role in creating effective programmable data planes in Kubernetes. They also discuss benefits, challenges, best practices, as well as future trends and opportunities.
Gateway to the Future: A Brief History of Kubernetes Ingress
Join Viktor Gamov, a Principal Developer Advocate with Kong, as he navigates the evolution of Kubernetes Ingress. Starting with the basics, he’ll explain how Ingress is pivotal in managing external access to services within a Kubernetes cluster through HTTP and HTTPS routes. In this talk, Viktor will also address its limitations – the challenge of managing multiple Ingress resources, inconsistencies across different controllers, and inherent limitations in handling non-L7 protocols like TCP and UDP.
How to Validate Error Handling | A Kubernetes Guide
To validate error handling often means to setup complex environments. This guide shows how you can avoid doing so.
The Future of API Gateways on Kubernetes
The exponential growth of the Internet and cloud computing has given rise to applications that are smaller, more distributed, and designed for highly dynamic environments capable of rapidly scaling up or down as needed. These applications have pushed the demand for modern API management product architectures that can leverage cloud native capabilities to achieve scalability, resilience, agility, and cost efficiency.
Testing Kubernetes networking with k6 - Roberto Santalla (k6 Office Hours #91)
How would you go about testing Kubernetes networking? For his initial project with k6, our new Senior Software Engineer, Roberto Santalla, talks to us about how he used k6 to improve end-to-end network throughput and some insights he learned about Kubernetes networking along the way. He is joined by Developer Advocates Nicole van der Hoeven and Leandro Melendez.
Quickly create performance and regression tests from a Postman collection
Speedscale is a Y-Combinator backed startup that helps Kubernetes engineering teams build more resilient and performant containerized apps. Unlike other tools, we use agents/sidecars to record and playback sanitized traffic that you see in prod. With Speedscale, engineers can simulate production conditions, generate load, and mock third party backends modeled after real traffic patterns.
How to Restart a Kubernetes Pod Using kubectl
Restarting a Kubernetes pod can be necessary to troubleshoot issues, apply configuration changes or simply ensure the pod starts fresh with a clean state. With the power of kubectl, you’ll be able to gracefully restart pods without disrupting the overall application availability. This post will walk you through the process of restarting pods within a Kubernetes cluster using the command-line tool, kubectl. Let’s dive in and learn how to effectively restart Kubernetes pods using kubectl!
