Show HN: Datree (YC W20) ā End-to-End Policy Management for Kubernetes
Hi HN, Iām Shimon, the co-founder of Datree: A policy management solution for Kubernetes. We help DevOps engineers prevent misconfigurations in their Kubernetes by enforcing an organizational policy on their clusters. Engineers can define a custom policy or use one of Datreeās built-in policies, such as NIST/NSA Hardening Guide, EKS Security Best Practices, CIS Benchmark, and more.
Our website is at https://datree.io and our GitHub is here: https://github.com/datreeio/datree
This is not the first time I have shown Datree to the HN community: A little over a year ago, I posted here an earlier version of Datree (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28918850). At that time, Datree consisted of a CLI tool to detect Kubernetes misconfigurations during the development process (locally or in the CI/CD), unlike the version I present today in which the enforcement happens in production.
We built the CLI tool because we detected a big problem among Kubernetes operators: Misconfigurations. Kubernetes is extremely complex and flexible, which makes it very easy to poorly configure it in ways that are not secure. And indeed, we talked to dozens of Kubernetes operators who suffered from various problems, starting with failed audits, all the way to downtime in production, all because of misconfigurations.
Our solution was simple: Give the developers the means to shift-left security testing during the development process with a CLI tool that can be integrated into the CI/CD. We thought this was the best way to approach the problem: It is easiest to fix misconfigurations in the development process before they are deployed to production, it prevents context-switching and relieves resources from the DevOps team.
While the CLI tool was very popular among the open-source community (it got over 6000 stars on GitHub), we soon realized that CI/CD enforcement is not enough. As we talked with Datreeās users, we realized we had made a fundamental mistake: We thought of misconfiguration prevention in technical terms rather than organizational terms.
Indeed, from a technical point of view, it makes sense to shift-left Kubernetes security. But when considering the organizational structure in which it takes place, it simply isnāt enough. DevOps engineers told us that they love the shift-left concept, but they simply cannot rely on the goodwill of the engineers to run a CLI tool locally or to monitor all the pipelines leading to production. They need governance, something to help them stay in control of the state of their clusters.
Moreover, we realized that many companies who use Kubernetes are heavily regulated, and cannot take any chances with their security. Sure, these companies want the engineers to fix misconfigurations during development, but they also want something to make sure that no matter what, their clusters remain misconfiguration-free.
Based on this understanding, we developed a new version of Datree that sits on the cluster itself (rather than in the CI/CD) and protects the production environment by blocking misconfigured resources with an admission webhook. It has a centralized policy management solution to enable governance, and native monitoring to get real-time insights into the state of your Kubernetes.
I look forward to hearing your feedback and answering any questions you may have.

How to create a react app with Go support using WebAssembly in under 60 seconds
Go is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google, it is syntactically similar to C, but with memory safety, garbage collection, structural typing, and CSP-style concurrency. In my case, I needed to run Go for JSON schema validations, in other cases, you might want to perform a CPU-intensive task or use a CLI tool written in Go.

Gatekeeper vs Kyverno
I worked with both of them and from my experience Gatekeeper is more solid and accountable, I even wrote an article about Gatekeeper. Both Gatekeeper and Kyverno require a lot of heavy lifting work. On the one hand, Gatekeeper will probably require more configuration work however the community and the tool itself are more stable than Kyverno. On the other hand, Kyverno policy-as-code capabilities are much easier to use/understand. This way or another, for me using Kyvernoās policy language or Rego for my policies, wasnāt such a pleasant experience. I personally believe in GitOps and shifting left so if youāre looking for tools I would highly recommend you to review Datree, which is an open-source CLI (Disclaimer: Iām one of the developers at Datree). Datree is a more centralized policy management solution rather than a policy engine. Unlike Kyverno/Gatekeeper Datree was built to help DevOps teams to shift left and practice GitOps by delegating more responsibilities to the developers more efficiently. In practice, Datree already comes with built-in rules and policies along with YAML and schema validation for K8s resources and CRDs such as Argo CRDs. Datreeās policies are written in JSONScheme which is a common solid policy language supported by the community for many years. Additionally, Datreeās CLI also comes with a dashboard app where you can monitor the policies in your organization. You can modify and update your policies, review which policies are being used in practice, and control who can create/delete/update your policies. The major difference is that at the moment, unlike Kyverno/Gatekeeper Datree doesnāt provide native policy enforcement in the Kubernetes cluster at the moment but we expect to release this support very soon. At the moment, we provide a way to scan the cluster using a kubectl plugin. Feel free to check it out :)

Borgo is a statically typed language that compiles to Go
I'm not sure what exactly you mean by acknowledgement, but here are some counterexamples:
- A proposal for sum types by a Go team member: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644
- The community proposal with some comments from the Go team: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19412
Here are some excerpts from the latest Go survey [1]:
- "The top responses in the closed-form were learning how to write Go effectively (15%) and the verbosity of error handling (13%)."
- "The most common response mentioned Goās type system, and often asked specifically for enums, option types, or sum types in Go."
I think the problem is not the lack of will on the part of the Go team, but rather that these issues are not easy to fix in a way that fits the language and doesn't cause too many issues with backwards compatibility.

AWS Serverless Diversity: Multi-Language Strategies for Optimal Solutions
Now, Iām not going to use C++ again; I left that chapter years ago, and itās not going to happen. C++ isnāt memory safe and easy to use and would require extended time for developers to adapt. Rust is the new kid on the block, but Iāve heard mixed opinions about its developer experience, and there arenāt many libraries around it yet. LLRD is too new for my taste, but **Go** caught my attention.

How to use Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for Go applications
Generative AI development has been democratised, thanks to powerful Machine Learning models (specifically Large Language Models such as Claude, Meta's LLama 2, etc.) being exposed by managed platforms/services as API calls. This frees developers from the infrastructure concerns and lets them focus on the core business problems. This also means that developers are free to use the programming language best suited for their solution. Python has typically been the go-to language when it comes to AI/ML solutions, but there is more flexibility in this area. In this post you will see how to leverage the Go programming language to use Vector Databases and techniques such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with langchaingo. If you are a Go developer who wants to how to build learn generative AI applications, you are in the right place!

OpenBSD 7.5 Released
When Go first shipped, it was already well-documented that the only stable ABI on some platforms was via dynamic libraries (such as libc) provided by said platforms. Go knowingly and deliberately ignored this on the assumption that they can get away with it. And then this happened:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16606
If that's not "getting burned", I don't know what is. "Trying to provide a nice feature" is an excuse, and it can be argued that it is a valid one, but nevertheless they knew that they were using an unstable ABI that could be pulled out from under them at any moment, and decided that it's worth the risk. I don't see what that has to do with "not being as broadly compatible as they had hoped", since it was all known well in advance.
