How to use Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 with Kubernetes DNS
I'd like to use Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 nameservers in Kubernetes, alongside DNS over TLS. It looks like I can do it using core-dns. I need to setup the following somehow:
-
Dockerize Bind9 DNS with custom image
Shamless plug for CoreDNS. Much better DNS server than classic bind9. And of course there's already a nice container image for it.
-
Kubernetes traffic discovery
But another approach that could work in Kubernetes, because the DNS servers are within the cluster itself, would be to work directly with the DNS server pods. In most Kubernetes clusters, whether standalone or managed (GKE, AKS, EKS), the cluster DNS is either coredns or kube-dns. That was great to minimize how much configuration options we’d need to support. We realized we could edit the coredns or kube-dns configmap resources to enable their log option, which would make them log all the queries they handle. We’ll cover exactly how it’s done in more detail below.

Self hosted DNS server that responds to queries with data from web API?
CoreDNS has an ectd plugin, so your service could add entries to a database, which is used as record source. Not the same mechanism as you have described, but it will get the job done. Also this is what Kubetnetes does for incluster dns records.

The Complete Microservices Guide
Service Discovery: Microservices need to discover and communicate with each other dynamically. Service discovery tools like etcd, Consul, or Kubernetes built-in service discovery mechanisms help locate and connect to microservices running on different nodes within the infrastructure.

Replicating and Load Balancing Go Applications in Docker Containers with Consul and Fabio
After some research and testing, I landed on using Consul and Fabio as the demo infrastructure. Of course, there is a myriad of other options to accomplish this task, but because of the low configuration and ease of use, I was impressed with this pairing. Both projects are mature and well-supported, and very flexible--just because you can run them with low configuration, doesn't mean you have to. I wanted to keep this demo constrained, but the exercise did get me excited about exploring things further: circuit breakers, traffic splitting, and more complex service meshes.

register open-telemetry to consul
The goal is to be able to use Consul SD configurations to allow for retrieving scrape targets from consul. Is this possible? Can anyone provide an example? Thank you!!

Netdata release 1.38.0
The Consul collector is production ready! Consul by HashiCorp is a powerful and complex identity-based networking solution, which is not trivial to monitor. We were lucky to have the assistance of HashiCorp itself in this endeavor, which resulted in a monitoring solution of exceptional quality. Look for common blog posts and announcements in the coming weeks!

I Know What You Shipped Last Summer
In another effort to standardize development and operations, Lob has just wrapped up our container orchestration migration from Convox to HashiCorp’s Nomad, led by Senior Platform Engineer Elijah Voigt. In this new ecosystem, one feature available to us is Consul Service Mesh (a feature of Consul, which is part of our Lob Nomad stack).
