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.

Using GitLab Kubernetes Runners to Build Melange Packages
Recently, I came across Chainguard and wrote the article How to build Docker Images with Melange and Apko. As a fervent supporter of Kubernetes and GitLab CI, I was eager to experiment with building images using Melange in this particular setup. GitLab's shared Runners work seamlessly with Bubblewrap, eliminating the need for additional configurations. This post is intended for enthusiasts like myself, interested in hosting their own Kubernetes Runners and leveraging the Kubernetes Runner Type of Melange.

A Study of Malicious Code in PyPI Ecosystem
```
This is basically manually invoking what Flatpak does:
https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap
This is also useful for more than just security. E.G., you can test how your app would behave on a fresh install by masking your user configuration files. I personally also have a tool that uses it to basically bundle all dependencies from an entire Linux distribution in order to make highly portable AppImages— Been meaning to post that, will get around to it eventually maybe.
The flags above should hide your user data (`--tmpfs`), disable network access (`--unshare-all`), hide/virtualize devices and OS state (`--dev` and `--proc`), and make the rest of the root filesystem read-only (`--ro-bind`— Including the insecure X11 socket in `/tmp`, which you might want to expose for GUI apps).
Check them against `bwrap --help`; I might have omitted one or two more things you'd need.

How to Build & Deploy Scalable Microservices with NodeJS, TypeScript and Docker || A Comprehesive Guide
It is a dedicated infrastructure layer that manages service-to-service communication, providing features like load balancing, encryption, authentication, and monitoring. Istio deploys sidecar proxies alongside each microservice instance. These proxies handle communication, providing features like load balancing, service discovery, encryption, monitoring and authentication.

Developer’s Guide to Building Kubernetes Cloud Apps ☁️🚀
In a production environment there will be a load balancer setup with an Ingress Controller, Service Mesh or some type of Custom Router. This allows all traffic to be sent to the single load balancer IP address and then route the traffic to a service based on the Domain name or subpath. We are using a NGINX ingress controller but service meshes like Istio have been becoming the most popular solution to use as they offer more segmentation, security and granular control.

Progressive Delivery on AKS: A Step-by-Step Guide using Flagger with Istio and FluxCD
Flagger is a progressive delivery tool that enables a Kubernetes operator to automate the promotion or rollback of deployments based on metrics analysis. It supports a variety of metrics including Prometheus, Datadog, and New Relic to name a few. It also works well with Istio service mesh, and can implement progressive traffic splitting between primary and canary releases.

Implementing TLS in Kubernetes
End-to-end data encryption with a service mesh: Using an end-to-end data encryption mechanism with a service mesh like Istio, TLS can secure communication between different microservices within a Kubernetes cluster. This is a popular approach for modern, distributed microservice architectures.
