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.

SpinKube: Orchestrating light, fast and efficient WebAssembly (Wasm) workloads in Kubernetes (k8s)
The Spin operator uses the Kubebuilder framework and contains a Spin App Custom Resource Definition (CRD) and controller. It watches Spin App Custom Resources and realizes the desired state in the K8s cluster. Aside from the immediate benefits gained by running Wasm workloads in k8s, additional optimizations such as Horizontal Pod Scaling (HPA) and k8s Event-driven Autoscaling (KEDA) can be achieved in a pinch.

Annotations in Kubernetes Operator Design
The operator that I've been working on is designed to manage the full lifecycle of a QuestDB database instance, including version and hardware upgrades, config changes, backups, and (eventually) recovery from node failure. I used the Operator SDK and kubebuilder frameworks to provide scaffolding and API support.

Kubebuilder Tips and Tricks
Recently, I've been spending a lot of time writing a Kubernetes operator using the go operator-sdk, which is built on top of the Kubebuilder framework. This is a list of a few tips and tricks that I've compiled over the past few months working with these frameworks.

We moved our Cloud operations to a Kubernetes Operator
Since we built our operator using the Kubebuilder framework, most standard monitoring tasks were handled for us out-of-the-box. Our operator automatically exposes a rich set of Prometheus metrics that measure reconciliation performance, the number of k8s API calls, workqueue statistics, and memory-related metrics. We we were able to ingest these metrics into pre-built dashboards by leveraging the grafana/v1-alpha plugin, which scaffolds two Grafana dashboards to monitor Operator resource usage and performance. All we had to do was add these to our existing Grafana manifests and we were good to go!

Has anyone ever tried to learn how k8s works?
I wrote a CSI driver and some operators. I admire K8s, because you can find solution to almost any problem in the source code - API versioning, load balancing, request throttling, optimistic concurrency, security, and much much more. I recommend https://book.kubebuilder.io/ It is similar to Operator SDK, but without Openshift-specific stuff. It gradually introduces you to many k8s concepts, and follows design patterns that k8s uses internally.

Writing a Kubernetes Operator
A better way to write an operator these days is to use kubebuilder [1].
My complaint is that I have seen orgs write operators for random stuff, often reinventing the wheel. Lot of operators in orgs are result of resume driven development. Having said that it often comes handy for complex orchestration.

Docker Log Observability: Analyzing Container Logs in HashiCorp Nomad with Vector, Loki, and Grafana
Monitoring application logs is a crucial aspect of the software development and deployment lifecycle. In this post, we'll delve into the process of observing logs generated by Docker container applications operating within HashiCorp Nomad. With the aid of Grafana, Vector, and Loki, we'll explore effective strategies for log analysis and visualization, enhancing visibility and troubleshooting capabilities within your Nomad environment.

Monitoring, Observability, and Telemetry Explained
Visualization and Analysis: Choose a tool with intuitive and customizable dashboards, charts, and visualizations. A question to ask is, "Are the visualization features of this tool user-friendly and adaptable to our team's specific needs?" Tools like Grafana and Kibana provide powerful visualization capabilities.

Reverse engineering the Grafana API to get the data from a dashboard
Yes I'm aware that Grafana is open source but the method I used to find the API endpoints is far quicker than digging through hundreds of files in a codebase I'm not familiar with.

Building an Observability Stack with Docker
So, you will add one last container to allow us to visualize this data: Grafana, an open-source analytics and visualization platform that allows us to see traces and metrics simply. You can set Grafana to read data from both Tempo and Prometheus by setting them as datastores with the following grafana.datasource.yaml config file:
