Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

autometrics: easily add metrics to any function -- and jump to live Prometheus charts directly from your IDE (links with automatically customized PromQL queries are inserted into each function's doc comments)
The latter is both the "official" client (under the prometheus GitHub org) and the author's own evolution path from the former. More importantly, it enforces that all metrics comply with the OpenMetrics specification.

I once had hope that HTML5 would be the end of webpage compatibility issues, big NOPE. Could everyone just say somewhere on the site it's optimized for a certain browser?
The compatibility problem is "solved" when you have an objective compliance test. Like this one, for an OpenMetrics endpoint, that really makes it fast and easy to verify my code.

Integrating Software Networking products into Monitoring
The new defacto standard metrics protocol is based on Prometheus metrics format. It's now published as OpenMetrics.

Opensource Server Hosting/Management Web Panel
This is something that is actually on the road map, and something I have been assigned to. So you can expect to see this in the future, I will likely be implementing OpenMetrics endpoints that will be compliant with Prometheus & possibly promtail for Loki. I hope our status page located at `/status` will do for now.

How to create/get a centralised dashboard for cloud and on-premise apps?
The Prometheus format is now standardized as OpenMetrics, with a small test suite that I've used successfully. A quick websearch doesn't turn up any evidence that Umbrella or Office365 support it. I'm not aware of any explicit monitoring points for either service.
-
Looking for lightweight network protocol for low latency communication for embedded system
Yup. I worked on the RFC for this.
-
Generate SNMP private MIB for custom SNMP agent
For example, OpenMetrics/Prometheus allows for much more sane monitoring format than SNMP. All "MIB" information is inline, it's served over HTTP, and it's supported by a lot of different monitoring systems.

Kubernetes State Of The Union — KubeCon 2019, San Diego
Prometheus has established itself as a standard open-source tool for event monitoring and alerting and metrics collection. With OpenMetrics now a CNCF sandbox project, and OpenTracing and OpenCensus merging to become OpenTelemetry, opportunities have been created for new companies to provide monitoring and diagnostics solutions. While Datadog remains the 800-pound gorilla, a large number of startups and smaller players are offering a variety of monitoring solutions, and even finding a niche in deeper diagnostics, including more comprehensive solutions that include infrastructure level, Kubernetes cluster level, and microservice applications level monitoring and diagnostics all in one place, to help pinpoint the production issues quickly. I also saw a few vendors offering predictive diagnostic solutions. It seems the monitoring solution market will continue to be fragmented, with a couple of larger players and a number of smaller players competing on innovation.

Prometheus exporter for Playnite game statistics
Prometheus wants data in a specific format (value_name{label1="value1"} numbericValue) and an "exporter" is a middleware that reads data from something and exports it in Prometheus-compatible format (the format is being "opened" as OpenMetrics).

Understanding Buildpacks in Cloud Native Buildpacks
A buildpack is a software, designed to transform application source code into executable (OCI) images that can run on a variety of cloud platforms. At its core, a buildpack is a directory that includes a specific file named buildpack.toml. This file contains metadata and configuration details that dictate how the buildpack should behave. Buildpacks in simple terms, is a set of standards defining how the different steps that are required to build a compliant container image can be automated. Using those standards, there are projects that have been built round enabling that using an CLI or an API. The most common way of doing that is through the Cloud Native Buildpacks' Pack project. Pack is a CLI command that can run in the same system the developers are using to actually go through creating a Dockerfile.

Dive: A tool for exploring a Docker image, layer contents and more
Eventually, once zstd support gets fully supported, and tiny gzip compression windows are not a limitation, then compressing a full layer would almost certainly have a better ratio over several smaller layers

Is labelling best practice?
Please note that label-schema has been superseded by https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/annotations.md<^

Pushing container images to GitHub Container Registry with GitHub Actions
GitHub Container Registry stores container images within your organization or personal account, and allows you to associate an image with a repository. It currently supports both the Docker Image Manifest V2, Schema 2 and Open Container Initiative (OCI) specifications.

The cloud-agnostic-architecture illusion
We build all services as containerized workloads, i.e., OCI images - sometimes called Docker images. We deploy these to the Kubernetes product offered by the cloud vendor. Whenever we need some capability, containers are the answer. This insulates our applications from the vendor. In principle, we could switch providers as long as Kubernetes is available.

Containerd... Do I use Docker to build the container image? I miss the Docker Shim
Build images with anything that makes OCI compliant images, push, and profit.

Opensource Server Hosting/Management Web Panel
it's funny that you mention this because it is actually the thing that is next on my agenda for the image, as you can probably see already I bake in OCI image annotations in our image, which is great for including some core pieces of meta data. In addition to this though I will soon be including custom labels for Base64 encoded YAMLs for Kubernetes deployments using this image. I will look at including helm configuration as well. Then it should be just as easy as: $ docker pull registry.gitlab.com/crafty-controller/crafty-4:latest $ docker image inspect registry.gitlab.com/crafty-controller/crafty-4:latest | jq -r ".[].Config.Labels.\"org.arcadiatech.crafty.k8s.deployment\"" | base64 -d | kubectl apply -f -

My director is mad that I accepted another internal position for a 26% raise when he was told he could only give me a 10%
They still don't do anything really of substance, they're just gateways to their vendor's world - booking systems, payment systems, etc. You learn those as you go along. Yes, as a potential employee, you need to be able to tick those boxes on your CV, but if you understand the underlying technology, it's mostly a matter of booking your own AWS or Azure server for $5-10 a month for a few weeks, and fooling around. (Docker is a bit different in the sense that they were the first to popularize today's de-facto container image standard, the "Docker container", which has since been accepted as a proper standard and renamed to "OCI image format"; but at the end of the day, at this point in time, Docker in itself is still just a company out for the money, and the multi-GB installation of their product can, for the essential functionality part, be replaced by a few hundred lines of Bash code. The cool boys today don't use Docker, they use [Podman(https://podman.io/), which is essentially a much more lightweight drop-in replacement ;-) )
