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.

Authenticated Docker Hub image pulls in Kubernetes
The general problem of patching resource definitions that are not fully under your control has also been recognized for some time. This is true of default resources created and updated by cluster maintenance tools (e.g. kOps), or by public helm charts that you use to install common services and operators (e.g. nginx-ingress, cert-manager, and so on). High quality charts will allow you to override the configuration of important components such as service account references, but some simpler charts offer much less configuration.

Building ClickHouse Cloud from Scratch in a Year
Very fast progress and great article with lots of useful information. I found myself nodding a lot having recently seen GitLab Dedicated https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/subscriptions/gitlab_dedicated/ being developed that had my similar challenges. I wonder what other people think of Kops https://kops.sigs.k8s.io/

EKS vs ECS
note: I work with kube on a daily basis. All current clusters under my care use a managed backplane service though there are a number of small (3+ years-old) clusters that I still keep an eye on that were initialized using kops.

Kubernetes from Scratch in 2022
Kops is a cluster setup and management command line tool that deploys a Kubernetes cluster to AWS. It provides configuration abstractions such as manifest YAML files that facilitate node and components configuration. And like Ansible, it will provide dry-run capabilities and ensures idempotency of changing the nodes.

Auto-scaling DynamoDB Streams applications on Kubernetes
There are a variety of ways in which you can create an Amazon EKS cluster. I prefer using eksctl CLI because of the convenience it offers. Creating an an EKS cluster using eksctl, can be as easy as this:

How to migrate Apache Solr from the existing cluster to Amazon EKS
There are many ways to create a cluster such as using eksctl. In my case, I will use terraform module cause it’s easy to reuse and comprehend.

Ultimate EKS Baseline Cluster: Part 1 - Provision EKS
eksctl [eksctl] is the tool that can provision EKS cluster as well as supporting VPC network infrastructure.

[AWS] EKS vs Self managed HA k3s running on 1x2 ec2 machines, for medium production workload
For this and many other reasons I recommend doing everything in Terraform EXCEPT EKS and its node groups. For that, I use https://eksctl.io/ because it much better manages the lifecycle of EKS and your node groups. I have an blog article better explaining why I recommend it, and another blog article explaining how to do zero-downtime upgrades with EKSCTL.

Anybody using spot instances for worker nodes?
Second, make sure you create a spot instance group that attempts to launch MULTIPLE different instance types. This way if one instance type gets flushed, your autoscaler will kick in and launch a different type. Without this, you WILL HAVE DOWNTIME if a sudden price hike and flush occurs. If you're using eksctl I have example configurations that use multi-instance types on Github here.
