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).

A Comprehensive Guide to API Gateways, Kubernetes Gateways, and Service Meshes
The Service Mesh Interface (SMI) specification was created to solve this portability issue.

Service Mesh Use Cases
> I suspect if a Service Mesh is ultimately shown to have broad value, one will make it's way into the K8S core
I'm not so sure. I suspect it'll follow the same roadmap as Gateway API, which it already kind of is with the Service Mesh Interface (https://smi-spec.io/)

Service Mesh Considerations
It is very common that a service mesh deploys a control plane and a data plane. The control plane does what you might expect; it controls the service mesh and gives you the ability to interact with it. Many service meshes implement the Service Mesh Interface (SMI) which is an API specification to standardize the way cluster operators interact with and implement features.

Kubernetes: Cross-cluster traffic scheduling - Access control
Before we start, let's review the SMI Access Control Specification. There are two forms of traffic policies in osm-edge: Permissive Mode and Traffic Policy Mode. The former allows services in the mesh to access each other, while the latter requires the provision of the appropriate traffic policy to be accessible.

Announcing osm-edge 1.1: ARM support and more
osm-edge is a simple, complete, and standalone service mesh and ships out-of-the-box with all the necessary components to deploy a complete service mesh. As a lightweight and SMI-compatible Service Mesh, osm-edge is designed to be intuitive and scalable.

Kubernetes State Of The Union — KubeCon 2019, San Diego
I started on Monday, attending ServiceMeshCon2019. My guesstimate is that about 1000 people attended it. I believe Service Mesh is playing such a crucial role in scaling cloud native technologies that large scale cloud-native deployments may not be possible without service mesh. Just like you cannot really succeed in deploying a microservices based application without a microservices orchestration engine, like Kubernetes, you cannot scale the size and capacity of a microservices-based application without service mesh. That’s what makes it so compelling to see all the service mesh creators — Istio, Linkerd, Consul, Kuma — and listen to them. There was also a lot of discussion of SMI (Service Mesh Interface) — a common interface among all services mesh. The panel at the end of the day included all the major service mesh players, and some very thought provoking questions were asked and answered by the panel.

Introducing the Cloud Native Compute Foundation (CNCF)
In the episode with Annie, she gave a great overview of the CNCF and a handful of projects that she's excited about. Those include Helm, Linkerd, Kudo, Keda and Artifact Hub. I gave a bonus example of the Service Mesh Interface project.
